Subscriptions: get package id and version from payload

Hi support,

Subscribing to package pushed to built-in feed event (JSON at the bottom) - in order to retrieve package id and package version I have to parse textual data from the Payload.Event.Message field. IMO this should be available as a structured event-specific metadata. Moreover, Payload.Event should have a type discriminator so different event types can be easily modelled/dispatched in my webhook handler. There is the EventType field but it is always set to “SubscriptionPayload”.

Thanks,
queil

Hi Queil,

Thank you for the question.

I have raised this with the engineers at Octopus.

The way Octopus handles events, It would not as simple as it initially seems. The events aren’t structured like that, unfortunately.

What I would suggest is a UserVoice:

https://octopusdeploy.uservoice.com/

By doing this, Octopus will see if this is something they were willing to implement.

I’m sorry I could not bring better news.

If there’s anything else, I could assist you with.

Please feel free to reach out.

Kind regards,
Ziaul
