description: >-
  Beamer's event surface is a webhook catalog, not a streaming or AsyncAPI surface. Webhooks are
  configured in the dashboard by picking an event type and an endpoint; Beamer then POSTs a JSON array
  of one or more events to that endpoint. No AsyncAPI document is published on any host, and none is
  authored here.
asyncapi_published: false
transport: https-webhook
delivery:
  method: POST
  content_type: application/json
  body_shape: JSON array containing at least one event
  batching: >-
    A single request can carry more than one event. Events delivered in one request are never resent in
    a later one, so a receiver that processes only the first array element silently drops the rest.
  retry_policy: not documented
  ordering: not documented
  replay: not supported — "Events sent in one request will not be sent in future requests"
security:
  mechanism: shared secret in header
  header: Beamer-Webhook-Secret
  signature: false
  timestamp: false
  note: >-
    Each webhook carries an auto-generated secret, visible in the dashboard, that Beamer sends in the
    Beamer-Webhook-Secret header on every request. Beamer recommends comparing it on every call. It is
    a static bearer secret rather than an HMAC signature over the payload, so it offers no replay or
    tamper protection beyond authenticity of the sender.
event_count: 4
events:
  - name: New post
    trigger: Publishing a new post
    payload_fields:
      [id, date, published, category, feedbackEnabled, reactionsEnabled, showInWidget,
       showInStandalone, postUrl, language, title, contentHtml, content, linkUrl, linkText]
  - name: New comment
    trigger: A user sends a new comment
    payload_fields:
      [postTitle, date, text, userId, userFirstName, userLastName, userEmail, url, userCustomAttributes]
  - name: New reaction
    trigger: A user sends a new reaction
    payload_fields:
      [postTitle, date, reaction, userId, userFirstName, userLastName, userEmail, url, userCustomAttributes]
  - name: New NPS score
    trigger: A user saves a new NPS score
    payload_fields:
      [date, score, feedback, userId, userFirstName, userLastName, userEmail, url, refUrl, userCustomAttributes]
gaps:
  - No AsyncAPI or machine-readable event schema is published; payload shapes exist only as examples in prose.
  - No delivery guarantees, retry schedule, or dead-letter behaviour is documented.
  - No signature (HMAC) or timestamp, so a receiver cannot detect replay or tampering.
  - No webhook management API — webhooks are created only in the dashboard, not through the REST API.
