Invalid Type when trying to create Platform Event

Question

Ive created a platform event in salesforce and am unable to reference it in my code to trigger the event, below is my event object I have created.

The error I am receiving can be seen below

classes/InboundILOS.cls: Invalid type: ILOSRecording_Event__e (Line: 22, Column: 9)

And my code where I am trying to create the ILOSRecording_Event__c list is below.

@RestResource(urlMapping='/Widgets/*')
global with sharing class InboundILOS {

    @HttpPost 
    global static String createILOS() {
        ILOS_Intergration_Post__c w = new ILOS_Intergration_Post__c();
        String requestBody = RestContext.request.requestBody.toString();
        w.JSON_Response__c =requestBody;
        JSON2ApexResp resp = JSON2ApexResp.parse(requestBody);
        System.debug(resp.token);
        w.token__c=resp.token;
        w.videoURL__c=resp.videoURL;
        w.embedURL__c=resp.embedURL;
        w.randTag__c=resp.randTag;
        w.iframe__c=resp.iframe;
        List<ILOSRecording_Event__e> e = new List<ILOSRecording_Event__e>();
        insert w;
        return 'Upload Complete';
   }

The Platform Event feature was introduced very recently. Any time you are making use of such a new feature, make sure you set the API Version to the most up to date value available.
