+## Stream Iterator
+
+You can use `Structure.run_stream()` for streaming Events from the `Structure` in the form of an iterator.
+
+!!! tip
+  Set `stream=True` on your [Prompt Driver](../drivers/prompt-drivers.md) in order to receive completion chunk events.

 ## Context Managers
 
 You can also use [EventListener](../../reference/griptape/events/event_listener.md)s as a Python Context Manager.
