Microsoft Graph Change Notification

Represents the change notification payload sent by Microsoft Graph to a subscriber's webhook endpoint when a subscribed resource changes. The payload is a changeNotificationCollection containing one or more changeNotification objects. Each notification identifies which subscription triggered it, what resource changed, and the type of change (created, updated, or deleted). Notifications may optionally include encrypted resource data when the subscription was configured with includeResourceData set to true.
