subscription.downgraded

Subscriber moved to a lower-priced plan.

When this fires

A subscriber is switched to a lower-priced plan on the same project. The plan assignment, currency, and stored price on the Subscriby subscription record are updated, and this event reports the move.

The switch does not itself perform a provider-side pro-ration or issue a credit. Any billing adjustment is whatever the provider does on the next cycle.

Caveats

  • No credit or refund is issued by this action. If you owe subscribers a mid-cycle credit on downgrade, apply it yourself through the provider.
  • Direction is decided by comparing the two plan prices, normalised to USD. Anything that is not strictly more expensive lands here, so a switch between two equally-priced plans emits this event, not subscription.upgraded.
  • Resource access tied to the higher tier may be revoked on the next renewal cycle.

Related events

  • subscription.upgraded: opposite direction.
  • member.resource_removed: emitted when premium-tier resources are detached.

Ability to subscribe

A token needs this to subscribe an endpoint to the event.

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.

Payload

JSONWhat Subscriby posts to your endpoint

The signed JSON envelope posted to your endpoint.

The envelope every event is delivered in.

Responses

2XXAny success status

Your endpoint acknowledged the delivery. Any 2xx status within 30 seconds marks it delivered; the response body is ignored.

defaultAny other status

Any other status, a connection failure, or no answer within 30 seconds counts as a failed attempt. The delivery is retried 8 times, after 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 2 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, 1 day, 3 days; the last failure dead-letters it, and it can be retried from the dashboard or POST /v1/webhook-deliveries/{delivery}/retry. After 20 consecutive failures the endpoint is paused until it is resumed.
