I have integrated keycloak in my admin portal using keycloak.js SDK and now I want to track each user activity and log it in keyclock

Example

1. If user deleted sometime I want to log event in keycloak
2. If user update something I want to log event in keycloak

My website is in Next js React

You can create a custom event and add it to the list of events in the realm settings

Keycloak is not an event store for your application.  
Keycloak just emits events for its own operations.

Someone in a conference, using keycloak, used " Axon Framework" ([https://www.baeldung.com/axon-cqrs-event-sourcing](https://www.baeldung.com/axon-cqrs-event-sourcing)). Maybe you can check this out
