How to trigger a Flow by an event?

Has anyone been able to get a Flow to trigger by an event (sysevent table)?  I was trying to trigger by a record insert on that table with the Name matching the event name, but the Flow was not triggered.

Thank you,

For anyone reading this post, please refer to some of the other replies marked helpful which may work for your particular scenario.  My specific use case was around Contract Management, so I didn't want to modify anything with the out of the box contract.expiration event.  I instead pointed to the Contract record and was able to get the Flow to trigger when the Expiration field changed.
