(The legacy standalone "webhooks" surface was deprecated in 0.13.1 in favor of Alerts.) Change events are also readable directly from the REST change-events feed (GET /api/v1/events). Event subscriptions are managed via the /api/v1/events/subscriptions API with entity/event filters. Destinations supported: generic HTTP webhook, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, and email. No published AsyncAPI document exists — this is the webhook/event catalog. eventType values below are taken verbatim from the OpenMetadata changeEventType.json JSON schema. mechanism: Alerts / Event Subscriptions (change events) management_api: /api/v1/events/subscriptions change_events_feed: /api/v1/events destinations: - generic-webhook - slack - microsoft-teams - google-chat - email event_types: - entityCreated - entityUpdated - entityFieldsChanged - entityNoChange - entitySoftDeleted - entityDeleted - entityRestored - entityLineageAdded - entityLineageUpdated - entityLineageDeleted - threadCreated - threadUpdated - postCreated - postUpdated - taskCreated - taskUpdated - taskResolved - taskClosed - suggestionCreated - suggestionUpdated - suggestionAccepted - suggestionRejected - suggestionDeleted - logicalTestCaseAdded - userLogin - userLogout payload: ChangeEvent (type/changeEvent.json) — eventType, entityType, entityId, entityFullyQualifiedName, previousVersion, currentVersion, changeDescription, timestamp legacy_note: Standalone webhooks deprecated in 0.13.1; use Alerts.
