# Event Types[¶](#event-types "Permanent link")

When you create a webhook, you subscribe it to one or more events. Capawesome Cloud then sends a request each time one of those events occurs.

The following events are currently supported:

| Event                    | Fires when                                       |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ |
| app\_build\_created      | A new app build is created.                      |
| app\_deployment\_created | A new deployment is created.                     |
| job\_created             | A new job is created.                            |
| job\_finished            | A job finishes (succeeded, failed, or canceled). |

## Resource events vs. job events[¶](#resource-events-vs-job-events "Permanent link")

It helps to know the difference between the two kinds of events:

* **Resource events** (`app_build_created`, `app_deployment_created`) fire the moment a build or deployment is _created_ — useful to know that work has started.
* **Job events** (`job_created`, `job_finished`) track the _execution_ behind that work. Every build and deployment runs as a job, so `job_finished` is the event to subscribe to when you care about the outcome — its payload carries the final `status` and links back to the build or deployment via `appBuildId` / `appDeploymentId`.

In practice, most integrations subscribe to `job_finished` to react to a build or deployment succeeding or failing.

The request body for every event follows the same envelope — see [Payload structure](/docs/cloud/webhooks/payload-structure/).

Need an event that's not listed here? [Let us know](/docs/support/) and we'll look into adding it.
