# A creator bans a subscriber.

`POST member.banned` (webhook)

### When this fires

A creator bans a subscriber. Their access is revoked, the connector removes them from all linked resources, and they cannot re-join the project until the ban is lifted.

### Caveats

- Bans persist across subscription cycles until explicitly lifted via `member.unbanned`.
- Active subscriptions are cancelled in the same flow; expect `subscription.cancelled`.

### Related events

- `member.unbanned`: paired transition.
- `member.kicked`: softer discipline.

## Headers

- `SB-Signature` string, required
- `SB-Event-Id` string, required
- `SB-Event-Name` string, required
- `Content-Type` string, required
- `User-Agent` string, required

## Payload

- object: The envelope every event is delivered in.
  - `id` string, required: A ULID unique to the event, prefixed `evt_`. Every retry carries the same id, so it is the key to deduplicate on.
  - `type` 'member.banned', required: The event name, always `member.banned` here.
  - `created_at` string, date-time, required: When the event was emitted, server time, ISO 8601.
  - `api_version` string, required: The contract version of the payload shape, `2026-05-01` today. A breaking change to a shape ships under a new version.
  - `project_id` string, uuid, nullable, required: The project the event belongs to; null for team-scoped and billing events.
  - `data` object, required: The event-specific payload. Keys that do not apply to a given emission are omitted rather than sent as null, so check for presence.
    - `subscriber` object, required: The member's id and status only.
      - `id` string, uuid, required: Subscriber's project-scoped user id.
      - `status` string, required: Always `banned` for this event.
    - `reason` string, nullable, required: Reason supplied at ban time.

## Acknowledgement `2XX`

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

## Other responses

- `default`: 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.
