i want to get the order event and want to use the order object data , tried this but something is missing, here is what i tried
and how can i use this data in my helper/block class or controller action?

etc/adminhtml/events.xml

<?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="test_order">
 <observer name="afterOrderObserver" instance="VendorModuleObserverOrder"/>
 </event>
</config>

Observer/TestOrder.php

<?php

namespace VendorModuleModelObserver;

use MagentoFrameworkEventObserverInterface;

class TestOrder implements ObserverInterface

 /**
 * Order Model
 *
 * @var MagentoSalesModelOrder $order
 */
 protected $order;

 public function __construct(
 MagentoSalesModelOrder $order
 )
 
 $this->order = $order;
 

 public function execute(MagentoFrameworkEventObserver $observer)
 
 $orderId = $observer->getEvent()->getOrderIds();
 $order = $this->order->load($orderId);

 //get Order All Item
 $itemCollection = $order->getItemsCollection();
 $customer = $order->getCustomerId(); // using this id you can get customer name

 

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="VendorModuleObserverOrderData" />
 </event>
</config>

OrderData.php

class OrderData implements MagentoFrameworkEventObserverInterface

 public function execute(MagentoFrameworkEventObserver $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.

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();
