Using registerEvents for API methods

Plugins & Platform
1

There is generic events you could use, using API method:

But how to use that in registerEvents in a plugin:

public function registerEvents()
{
    return [
        'API.SitesManager.updateSite.end' => ['function' => 'siteUpdated']
    ];
}

    public function siteUpdated($array) {
        //$values = implode(",", $array);
        $values = gettype($array);
        $log = "value is $values";
        return $log;
        );
    }

This returns NULL, and I have looked for examples for this, but the docs isn’t clear for me:

The normal thing, you post a question, then you realize, that you solved it…

    public function registerEvents()
    {
        return [
            'API.SitesManager.updateSite.end' => 'siteUpdated'
        ];
    }


    public function siteUpdated($null, $event) {
        $params = $event['parameters'];
        $id = $params['idSite'];
        );
    }

What got me confused was the first parameter, I never relized that it is null, so the array is in the second paramater.
