asyncapi_published: false
asyncapi_note: authentik publishes NO AsyncAPI document. The event surface below was read
  from the event-actions reference, the SSF provider documentation and the notification
  transport schemas in the published OpenAPI. Nothing here is fabricated and nothing is
  presented as an AsyncAPI spec.
surfaces:
- id: notification-transports
  name: Notification transport webhooks
  kind: outbound-webhook
  description: 'authentik''s general-purpose webhook surface. An operator creates a
    Notification Transport with mode `webhook` (generic JSON POST) or `webhook_slack`
    (Slack/Discord-compatible payload), then binds it to a Notification Rule that matches
    a policy against incoming events. The transport can validate the receiver''s TLS
    certificate against a chosen CA and the request body is fully customizable through a
    Notification Webhook Mapping expression.'
  configured_via_api: true
  api:
    resources:
    - path: /events/transports/
      operations:
      - events_transports_list
      - events_transports_create
      - events_transports_retrieve
      - events_transports_update
      - events_transports_partial_update
      - events_transports_destroy
      - events_transports_test_create
    - path: /events/rules/
      description: Notification rules that decide which events reach which transport.
    - path: /propertymappings/notification/
      description: Webhook body mappings (expressions returning JSON-serializable data).
    schemas:
    - NotificationTransport
    - NotificationWebhookMapping
    - TransportModeEnum
  modes:
  - local
  - webhook
  - webhook_slack
  - email
  fields:
    webhook_url: uri
    webhook_ca: uuid — certificate-key pair used to validate the receiver's TLS certificate
    webhook_mapping_body: uuid — NotificationWebhookMapping controlling the request body
  delivery_semantics:
    signing: not documented
    retries: not documented
    ordering: not documented
    note: The docs do not state a signing scheme, retry policy or delivery guarantee for
      notification-transport webhooks. A receiver should not assume replay protection.

- id: ssf
  name: Shared Signals Framework (SSF) event stream
  kind: standards-based-event-stream
  standard: OpenID Shared Signals Framework 1.0
  spec: https://openid.net/specs/openid-sharedsignals-framework-1_0-ID3.html
  description: 'authentik acts as an SSF TRANSMITTER. A receiving application creates a
    stream declaring the signal types it wants; authentik then POSTs Security Event Tokens
    (SETs) to the receiver as those signals occur. Configured as a backchannel provider
    alongside a normal OIDC provider. Reference integration is Apple Business Manager.'

  note: 'These are the actions that create an event object; a notification rule can match
