developers@vacationtracker.ioPause a webhook
This API method pauses a webhook (`status: paused`, `pausedReason: manual`) and returns it with `200`. Requires `webhooks:write`. No request body. Events that happen while it is paused are not sent later, and pending retries are skipped; test deliveries are still sent. The `Idempotency-Key` and `X-On-Behalf-Of` headers are ignored. Errors: `403 FORBIDDEN` (the key owner no longer exists), `404 WEBHOOK_NOT_FOUND`, and `409 WEBHOOK_REVOKED` (the webhook is revoked).
A user requested a leave that needs approval
Sent when a user requests a leave that needs approval; the leave in `data` is `OPEN`. The owner needs `leaves:read`.
