Webhook events and payloads	For each webhook event, you can review when the event occurs, an example payload, and descriptions about the payload object parameters.	{% data reusables.gated-features.enterprise_account_webhooks %}	[/early-access/integrations/webhooks/ /v3/activity/events/types/ /webhooks/event-payloads]	[{free-pro-team } {enterprise-server } {github-ae *}]

{% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" %}

{% endif %}

{% data reusables.webhooks.webhooks_intro %}

You can create webhooks that subscribe to the events listed on this page. Each webhook event includes a description of the webhook properties and an example payload. For more information, see "Creating webhooks."

Webhook payload object common properties

Each webhook event payload also contains properties unique to the event. You can find the unique properties in the individual event type sections.

Key	Type	Description
`action`	`string`	Most webhook payloads contain an `action` property that contains the specific activity that triggered the event.
{% data reusables.webhooks.sender_desc %} This property is included in every webhook payload.
{% data reusables.webhooks.repo_desc %} Webhook payloads contain the `repository` property when the event occurs from activity in a repository.
{% data reusables.webhooks.org_desc %}
{% data reusables.webhooks.app_desc %} For more information, see "Building {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %}."

The unique properties for a webhook event are the same properties you'll find in the payload property when using the Events API. One exception is the push event. The unique properties of the push event webhook payload and the payload property in the Events API differ. The webhook payload contains more detailed information.

{% tip %}

Note: Payloads are capped at 25 MB. If your event generates a larger payload, a webhook will not be fired. This may happen, for example, on a create event if many branches or tags are pushed at once. We suggest monitoring your payload size to ensure delivery.

{% endtip %}

Delivery headers

HTTP POST payloads that are delivered to your webhook's configured URL endpoint will contain several special headers:

Header	Description
`X-GitHub-Event`	Name of the event that triggered the delivery.
`X-GitHub-Delivery`	A GUID to identify the delivery.{% if enterpriseServerVersions contains currentVersion or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %}
`X-GitHub-Enterprise-Version`	The version of the {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} instance that sent the HTTP POST payload.
`X-GitHub-Enterprise-Host`	The hostname of the {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} instance that sent the HTTP POST payload.{% endif %}{% if currentVersion != "github-ae@latest" %}
`X-Hub-Signature`	This header is sent if the webhook is configured with a `secret`. This is the HMAC hex digest of the request body, and is generated using the SHA-1 hash function and the `secret` as the HMAC `key`.{% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" or currentVersion ver_gt "enterprise-server@2.22" %} `X-Hub-Signature` is provided for compatibility with existing integrations, and we recommend that you use the more secure `X-Hub-Signature-256` instead.{% endif %}{% endif %}{% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" or currentVersion ver_gt "enterprise-server@2.22" or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %}
`X-Hub-Signature-256`	This header is sent if the webhook is configured with a `secret`. This is the HMAC hex digest of the request body, and is generated using the SHA-256 hash function and the `secret` as the HMAC `key`.{% endif %}

Also, the User-Agent for the requests will have the prefix GitHub-Hookshot/.
