Below you can find the complete list of events that are sent via webhooks together with the description of the data payload.

For message and channel events the webhook request body will also include the list of channel members and attach additional information about their read status. For performance reasons, such list is truncated up to 50 members.

When applicable, the following attributes are included to the event user and to the event members:

total_unread_count	the total count of messages across all channels.
unread_channels	the count of channels with at least one unread message.
channel_last_read_at	the last time the channel was marked as read.
channel_unread_count	the count of unread messages on this channel
