Event Types

When you create a webhook, you subscribe it to one or more events. Capawesome Cloud then sends a request each time one of those events occurs.

The following events are currently supported:

Event	Fires when
app_build_created	A new app build is created.
app_deployment_created	A new deployment is created.
job_created	A new job is created.
job_finished	A job finishes (succeeded, failed, or canceled).

Resource events vs. job events

It helps to know the difference between the two kinds of events:

• Resource events (app_build_created, app_deployment_created) fire the moment a build or deployment is created — useful to know that work has started.
• Job events (job_created, job_finished) track the execution behind that work. Every build and deployment runs as a job, so job_finished is the event to subscribe to when you care about the outcome — its payload carries the final status and links back to the build or deployment via appBuildId / appDeploymentId.

In practice, most integrations subscribe to job_finished to react to a build or deployment succeeding or failing.

The request body for every event follows the same envelope — see Payload structure.
