Event Matcher Policy Action Type = "Custom Prefix" not working as expected about authentik HOT 1 CLOSED

Found the solution, courtesy of a Discord member. I searched ak_create_event and his answer did it for me:

Answer, courtesy of a helpful discord member:

If you put that in the event notification rule, then that would explain the spam. There are two different expressions.

This one goes as an expression policy in your login flow to emit the event:

ak_create_event("authentication_start")
return True

And this one goes in your event notification rule:

return request.context["event"].action == "custom_authentication_start"

The second part is very important. Creating an expression policy and binding it to a flow stage did the trick. Very flexible.
