Zoho publishers in Signals come with [predefined events](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/signals/help/publishers/supported-events/zoho-publishers/zoho-bigin/) and their schemas. Even for custom events, you can easily capture the event payload using the [Live Events](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/signals/help/publishers/create-publisher/custom-publishers/#live) support and generate the schema within seconds.
