-## Logs Instrumentation API
+### Logs Instrumentation API
 
 **Status**: [Development](../document-status.md)
 
 This set of API functions will provide the capabilities needed to emit a
 `LogRecord` as is currently provided by [Events API](./event-api.md).
 
+#### Emit Event
+
+**Status**: [Development](../document-status.md)
+
+An Event is a specialized type of `LogRecord` that conforms to the
+[Semantic Conventions for Events](https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/general/events.md)
+and all semantic conventions defined for logs. The effect of calling this API is
+to emit a resulting OpenTelemetry `Event` to the processing pipeline as a well
+formed `LogRecord`.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+* The `Name` of the Event, as described
+  in [event.name semantic conventions](https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/attributes-registry/event.md).
+* The (`AnyValue`) (optional) `Body` of the Event.
+* The `Attributes` (optional) of the Event. Event `Attributes` provide
+  additional details about the Event which are not part of the
+  well-defined event `Body`.
+* The `Timestamp` (optional) of the Event.
+* The [Context](../context/README.md) (optional) associated with the Event.
+* The `SeverityNumber` (optional) of the Event.
+
 ## Optional and required parameters
 
 The operations defined include various parameters, some of which are marked

+### Logs Instrumentation API
+
+**Status**: [Development](../document-status.md)
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> We are currently in the process of defining a new [Logs Instrumentation API](./bridge-api.md#logs-instrumentation-api).
+
+#### Emit Event
+
+Emit a `LogRecord` representing an OpenTelemetry `Event` that conforms to the
+definition of [Semantic Conventions for Events](https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/general/events.md).
+
+**Implementation Requirements:**
+
+The implementation MUST use the parameters
+to [emit a logRecord](./bridge-api.md#emit-a-logrecord) as follows:
+
+* The `Name` MUST be used to set
+  the `event.name` [Attribute](./data-model.md#field-attributes). If
+  the `Attributes` provided by the user contain an `event.name` attribute the
+  value provided in the `Name` takes precedence.
+* If provided by the user, the `Body` MUST be used to set
+  the [Body](./data-model.md#field-body). If not provided, `Body` MUST not be
+  set.
+* If provided by the user, the `Attributes` MUST be used to set
+  the [Attributes](./data-model.md#field-attributes). The user
+  provided `Attributes` MUST not take over the `event.name`
+  attribute previously discussed.
+* If provided by the user, the `Timestamp` MUST be used to set
+  the [Timestamp](./data-model.md#field-timestamp). If not provided, `Timestamp`
+  MUST be set to the current time when [emit](#emit-event) was called.
+* The [Observed Timestamp](./data-model.md#field-observedtimestamp) MUST not be
+  set. (NOTE: [emit a logRecord](./bridge-api.md#emit-a-logrecord) will
+  set `ObservedTimestamp` to the current time when unset.)
+* If provided by the user, the `Context` MUST be used to set
+  the [Context](./bridge-api.md#emit-a-logrecord). If not provided, `Context`
+  MUST be set to the current Context.
+* If provided by the user, the `SeverityNumber` MUST be used to set
+  the [Severity Number](./data-model.md#field-severitynumber) when emitting the
+  logRecord. If not provided, `SeverityNumber` MUST be set
+  to `SEVERITY_NUMBER_INFO=9`.
+* The [Severity Text](./data-model.md#field-severitytext) MUST not be set.
