# A group is renamed or its permission set replaced.

`POST group.updated` (webhook)

### When this fires

A group is renamed, or the permissions attached to it are replaced. Who is *in* the group is a separate event, `group.members_synced`, because the two changes have different consequences. A rename is cosmetic; changing the permission set silently re-scopes everyone already in the group.

### Caveats

- **The permission set is not in the payload**, so this event tells you a group changed without telling you into what. Read [the group endpoint](https://docs.subscriby.net/api/v1/reference/groups) for the current permissions.
- **Permissions replace, they do not merge.** An update that sends `permissions` sets them to exactly that list, so everyone in the group can gain and lose access in the same event.
- `code` is immutable, so a rename never breaks a reference held elsewhere.
- Membership is untouched here. See `group.members_synced`.

### Related events

- `group.members_synced`: who is in the group changed.
- `group.created`: predecessor.
- `group.deleted`: terminal state.

## 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` 'group.updated', required: The event name, always `group.updated` 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.
    - `team_id` string, uuid, required: Team that owns the group.
    - `group_id` string, uuid, required: Group identifier.
    - `code` string, required: Stable group code (immutable across renames).
    - `name` string, required: Updated display name.

## 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.
