Understanding Webhooks

When a webhook URL is specified for an automation, a POST request is made every time a build completes. Information is included about the build, as well as the user who triggered it and the commit that it was built from.

Webhook Body

Below are example webhook json payloads:

Responding to Webhooks

The server will automatically attempt a retry if the webhook request does not receive a status code of 200.

Retries

The server will retry the webhook up to 5 times with an increasing delay between attempts (up to a delay of one hour) in the case where it does not receive a 200 response code.

Signed Download URLs (Native Automations Only)

The downloadUrl field in the webhook allows only this specific build to be downloaded, and will be signed with a token that is valid for 24 hours. There is no limit on the number of downloads, but after the time limit the endpoint will no longer function.
