Please modify your code like below

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">

   <event name="sales_order_place_after">
       <observer name="order_data" instance="Vendor\Module\Observer\OrderData" />
   </event>
</config>

OrderData.php

class OrderData implements \Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface
{
    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
    {
     $order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
     echo $order->getId();
     exit;
    }
}

make sure you place events.xml under etc/adminhtml let me know if any help needed.

For me, sales_order_save_commit_after was the only event that worked well:

• If you need the event to be triggered in the admin area and also in the frontend, you can add the following code in etc/events.xml.
• If you need it for the order created from admin only, you need to add the following code in etc/adminhtml/events.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="sales_order_save_commit_after">
        <observer name="order_data" instance="Vendor\Module\Observer\OrderData" />
    </event>
</config>

Event name tag indicates the name of the event you want to observe

In your case you'd take a look at vendor/magento/module-sales/Model/Order.php class, in concrete place() method. You'll see 2 events fired there

public function place()
{
    $this->_eventManager->dispatch('sales_order_place_before', ['order' => $this]);
    $this->_placePayment();
    $this->_eventManager->dispatch('sales_order_place_after', ['order' => $this]);
    return $this;
}

If you want to run your code after order has been placed, then you should change

<event name="test_order">

And use

<event name="sales_order_place_after">

Note that the object attached to this event is $order, you should be able to access it in your observer using

$order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();

Answer 4

I'm finding that and Observer for sales_order_place_after and code -

$order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
$orderID = $order->getId();

Returns a null orderID, although the event does return an order.

As per the rules of the Observer, the event.xml goes into neither the frontend nor the adminhtml directories since this event is fired from both areas. I did (just for fun)try placing the event in adminhtml and then frontend, but it didn't trigger the observer.

I'm thinking that the orderid is not yet assigned at this point, as It's not the call to ->orderId() that is failing, for in the debugger the order object itself has a null orderid.

Anyone else run into this? I feel that its a timing issue?

One answer is to use the checkout_submit_all_after event. But, I believe this only is fired from the One Page Checkout, so be aware.

Answer 5

In 2.3.4, I found that using sales_order_place_after was not useful because it was called before the order was given an ID.

I found that sales_model_service_quote_submit_success can be observed for both frontend and admin orders.
