description: >-
  Confluent publishes no AsyncAPI document describing its own event surface, so there is no
  AsyncAPI artifact to save — fabricating one would be inventing a contract Confluent does not
  ship. What Confluent DOES publish is a webhook surface: the Confluent Cloud notifications
  system delivers events to a generic webhook URL, Slack or Microsoft Teams, and the whole
  subscription model is manageable through the notifications/v1 API group.
asyncapi_document:
  published: false
  note: >-
    Confluent ships first-party AsyncAPI TOOLING rather than a self-description. The CLI command
    `confluent asyncapi export` generates an AsyncAPI specification FOR A CUSTOMER'S OWN
    Confluent Cloud cluster (its topics and their Schema Registry schemas), and
    `confluent asyncapi import` consumes one. That is a per-tenant artifact produced against a
    live cluster with credentials, not a document Confluent publishes about itself, so nothing
    is captured here.

    description: >-
      Confluent sends a test message to each URL and it must be verified before the integration
      can be saved. An unverifiable URL blocks the save.

      Flow is: create an integration, list notification types, then create a subscription
      binding a notification type to an integration.

    - User Notifications (notifications/v1)
event_categories:
  note: >-
    Notification types are enumerable only through the live API
    (GET /notifications/v1/notification-types), which requires credentials. Categories below
    are the ones Confluent names in prose; the authoritative list is the API response.
  documented_examples:
    - Service quota threshold crossed (50% Information, 90% Warning, 100% Critical)
    - Connector state transitions (documented for connector failure/recovery alerts)
    - >-
      Unified Stream Manager alerts for registered Confluent Platform clusters — offline
      partitions, broker storage exhaustion, stalled telemetry (added 2026-08-25)
streaming_surface:
  note: >-
    Confluent's primary "event surface" is Apache Kafka itself, which is not describable in
    AsyncAPI at the vendor level — the channels are the customer's own topics. This is the
    reason the AsyncAPI slot is empty for a company whose entire product is event streaming,
    and it is a category distinction rather than a gap in Confluent's publishing.
