Difference Between Entry-/Asset-based and Job-based Webhook Events
| Differentiating Factors | Entry-/Asset-based Publish/Unpublish Webhooks | Job-based Publish/Unpublish Webhooks |
| How it functions | Triggers when an entry/asset is successfully published/unpublished/deleted/created on all/any environment | Triggers when a specific Job (Publish/Unpublish/Delete/Create) is completed on all/any environment |
| Bulk publish/unpublish of “N” items | Webhook is triggered “N” times for bulk actions | Webhook is triggered only once at the end for bulk actions (irrespective of the number of items, i.e., for one or many) |
| Publish/unpublish of single item | Webhook is triggered once | Webhook is triggered once |
| Webhook payload | Contains complete data about entry/asset (all the fields) | Contains only the summary of the job i.e., total count and its skipped, failed, success counts. |
Assets
| Method | Description |
| assets.delete | Any asset is deleted |
| assets.{asset_uid}.delete | A specific asset is deleted |
| assets.publish | Any asset is published |
| assets.publish.fail | Any asset failed to publish |
| assets.unpublish | Any asset is unpublished |
| assets.unpublish.fail | All assets failed to unpublish |
Releases
| Method | Description |
| releases.environments.deploy | Any release deployed on all environments |
| releases.environments.{environment_name}.deploy | Any release deployed on a specific environment |
| releases.{release_uid}.environments.deploy | A specific release deployed on all environments |
| releases.{release_uid}.environments.{environment_name}.deploy | A specific release deployed on a specific environment |
| releases.environments.deploy.{status} | The status of any release deployed on any environment |
| releases.{release_uid}.environments.deploy.{status} | The status of a specific release deployed on any environment |
| releases.environments.{environment_name}.deploy.{status} | The status of any release deployed on a specific environment |
| releases.{release_uid}.environments.{environment_name}.deploy.{status} | The status of a specific release deployed on a specific environment |
When a webhook is triggered for an entry or asset, because it was published/unpublished via a release, the webhook data of such as an event contains a 'source' key. This key contains the JSON data of the release (type, title, and UID) it was deployed through.
This is useful in cases where a lot depends on the webhook data. For example, in the case of static site generators, a build is generated every time an item (entry or asset) is published or unpublished. So, if a release is deployed with 200 items, it will generate a build 200 times, instead of just one time for the release. To avoid such cases, the developer can write custom code that ignores events whose response contains the source key. So, only one build will be generated for the whole release.
