# SmartPasteButton Events

The Kendo UI for Vue SmartPasteButton emits an event which enables you to integrate with your AI service upon user interaction.

## Available Events

The [`click`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/buttons/api/smartpasteclickevent) event is the primary event for the SmartPasteButton. It fires when the user activates the button and provides access to clipboard content and form field metadata through the [`requestData`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/buttons/api/smartpasteclickevent#requestData) property. Use this event to send data to your AI service and populate the form with the AI-generated results using the [`setResponse`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/buttons/api/smartpasteclickevent#setResponse) function.

The following demo lets you copy sample contact data, invoke `click`, inspect the request and response, and populate the form with `setResponse`.
