MySQL view existing event script

MySQL Events

I have a server with existing events. I know how to list them, but I don't know what they do. is there a way to see the event script of existing events? Either in cli or in the Workbench.

You can show the CREATE EVENT statement with the SQL below. *The doc explains the SQL below and \G can show it more clearly and you must select a database when showing the CREATE EVENT statement otherwise there is the error:

SHOW CREATE EVENT <event_name>;

Or:

SHOW CREATE EVENT <event_name>\G

Use MySQL's show create event statement to see the create event statement including its body containing the event code.
