----------

.. phpmethod:: MongoDB\\ChangeStream::next()

   Advances the change stream and attempts to load the next event.

   .. code-block:: php

      function next(): void

   .. note::

      Advancing the change stream does not guarantee that there will be a
      current event to access. You should still call
      :phpmethod:`MongoDB\\ChangeStream::valid()` to check for a current event
      at each step of iteration.
