The time that the payload was delivered.

username

The user that triggered the event.

  },
  "events": [
    {
      "username": "administrator",
      "userId": "173dd04b69134bdf99c5000aad0b6298",

}

Geoprocessing service webhook payloads

The following table lists the properties included in payloads for geoprocessing service webhooks, returning information on changes made to your geoprocessing services.

PropertyDescription
serviceType

The service type the webhook was configured for. For feature service webhooks, this property will only return GPServer.

jobId

eventType

The property representing how the geoprocessing service job completed. Geoprocessing service webhooks do not subscribe to specific event triggers. Rather, these webhooks deliver their payloads once a geoprocessing service job has completed. These payloads list if the job was completed successfully (esriJobSucceeded), unsuccessfully (esriJobFailed), or if the job was cancelled (esriJobCancelled).

Values: esriJobSucceeded | esriJobFailed | esriJobCancelled

when

The timestamp (formatted as milliseconds since epoch) of when the job completed.
