# suix\_subscribeEvent{deprecated} - Sui

This method subscribes to a stream of SUI events matching specified filter criteria via WebSocket. This enables real-time event monitoring for applications that need to respond immediately to on-chain activities such as DeFi trades, NFT mints, or smart contract state changes.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This method is deprecated

{% hint style="info" %}
This method requires a WebSocket connection, not HTTP.
{% endhint %}
