description: >-
  FullContact publishes no AsyncAPI document. It does publish a real, documented
  asynchronous callback surface: any request that supports it can carry a
  webhookUrl in its body, and FullContact POSTs the completed enrichment result
  to that URL. This artifact captures that webhook surface. It is a
  request-scoped callback, not a subscription/event-topic model — there is no
  event catalog, no signing scheme, and no delivery/retry policy published.
spec_type: none
asyncapi_published: false

webhooks:
  style: request-scoped callback
  registration: >-
    Per request. Supply a `webhookUrl` field in the JSON request body; there is
    no separate subscription endpoint or webhook management console.
  transport: HTTP POST
  content_type: application/json
  acknowledgement:
    status: 202
    body_example: >-
      {"status": 202, "message": "Queued for search. Your response will be sent
      to your webhook shortly at http://<your-endpoint>."}
  payload: >-
    "The payload of the POST request will mirror the responses of most other
    FullContact API requests, with data sent as JSON within the POST body."
  correlation: >-
    Documented pattern is to put your own identifiers in query parameters on
    the webhookUrl itself, e.g.
    http://yourdomain.com/path1/subpath?identifier=12345&segment=prospect —
    multiple parameters are supported.
  supporting_operations:
    - openapi/fullcontact-enrich-api-openapi.yml#enrichPerson
    - path: POST /v3/person.enrich
      note: Person Enrichment is the operation FullContact documents by name.
  testing:
    documented: true
    guidance: >-
      FullContact recommends intercepting webhook POSTs locally during
      development; the docs walk through ngrok plus netcat as the reference
      setup.

not_published:
  - AsyncAPI document
  - event/topic catalog
  - webhook signature or shared-secret verification scheme
