Events and payloads

Connection Hub manual›Webhooks›Events and payloads

The Community Management System is the place where most events originate. Whenever a significant action happens, such as a user updating their profile or a new post being created, the platform generates an event and sends it to the Webhook dispatcher for further processing.

What types of events does it generate?

The platform can generate various types of events. Below is a non extensive list, but a full overview is coming soon!

The payloads are governed by the CloudEvents spec. A specification for describing event data in a common way.
