Webhooks Breaking Change Coming

Webhooks have been promoted from the alpha to the stable API version. The endpoint will be temporarily available in both APIs versions, before deprecating from alpha at the end of June.

To use webhooks in the stable API version remove the alpha value in the api-version header of any webhook requests going forward.

The asset events are now split into folders and files.

  • New events
    • Files
      • file.created, file.deleted, file.ready, file.updated, file.upload.completed, file.versioned
    • Folders
      • folder.created, folder.deleted, folder.updated
  • Old events
    • asset.created, asset.deleted, asset.ready, asset.updated, asset.upload.completed, asset.versioned
