support.conversation.assigned

A support conversation is handed to a team member, or its assignment cleared.

Ability to subscribesupport-conversation:view

When this fires

A conversation's assignee changes: it is handed to a team member from the dashboard inbox, the REST API, Zapier, or n8n, or an existing assignment is cleared.

Clearing an assignment fires this same event with data.assigned_to_user_id: null. There is no separate "unassigned" event; branch on the null.

Caveats

  • assigned_to_user_id is a team member's user id, an account with dashboard access, not the member's subscriber_id. The two are different namespaces.
  • Assignment is advisory. It does not restrict who may reply; anyone on the team with support-conversation:update still can.
  • Re-assigning to the same person fires the event again. Deduplicate on id if you are posting notifications.

Related events

  • support.conversation.resolved: the usual next step once the assignee has answered.
  • support.message.received: what typically prompts an assignment.

Header Parameters

SB-Signature*string

t=<unix seconds>,v1=<hex>: the HMAC-SHA256 of "<t>.<raw body>" under the endpoint's secret. Verify it before acting, and refuse a t more than 300 seconds from now. During a secret rotation a v0= signature under the previous secret may precede v1=.

SB-Event-Id*string

The event's ULID, bare. The envelope's id is the same ULID prefixed evt_, so strip the prefix before comparing. Deduplicate on it: a retry carries the same id.

SB-Event-Name*string

The event name, the same as the envelope's type.

Content-Type*string

Always application/json.

User-Agent*string

Always Subscriby-Webhooks/1.0.

Request Body

application/json

The signed JSON envelope posted to your endpoint.
