Tag assigned

Incoming webhook deliveries are authenticated with HMAC signature headers (X-Chatway-Signature and X-Chatway-Timestamp), not your Chatway API key.

A tag was added to a conversation or contact.

Use tag.assigned to record a classification change, such as a VIP label being added. Read the label from data.tag.name and the actor from data.assigned_by. Pair this event with Tag removed to build a history of label changes. If your workflow uses a named value, such as a subscription plan, see Custom data assigned for key/value changes.

For signature verification and retries, see Webhooks overview.

Changes

Webhooks have no change history: a webhook is keyed by its event name rather than a path and method, so no recorded change can name it.
