How does it work?

When you create your button in an advanced appearance, if you choose to trigger an event like this:

The customButtonClick event is triggered when this button is clicked.

So you can use it to trigger the action of your choice. This could be displaying a modal or subscribing with Google (as described in this article).

The code looks like this:

access.on('customButtonClick', () => {
{ /* trigger you event */ }
}
)

Do I have to give a name to the event I want to trigger?

No, this is not mandatory.

Poool gives you the option of specifying the event name in the button options here:

However, this is optional, as it is the customButtonClick event that is triggered. Naming your event may allow you to differentiate between two custom buttons on the same appearance.

The code looks like this:

access.on('customButtonClick', e => {
 if (e.name === 'my_event_name')
   { /* trigger your event */ }
 }
)
