Microsoft Cloud Printing events

This article provides the properties and schema for Microsoft Cloud Printing events, which are published by Microsoft Graph API. For an introduction to event schemas, see CloudEvents schema.

Available event types

These events are triggered when Cloud printing jobs or printTaskDefinition are created or updated by operating over those resources using Microsoft Graph API.

Event name Description
Microsoft.Graph.PrinterUpdated Triggered when a print job for the printer gets to JobFetchable state - ready to be fetched for printing.
Microsoft.Graph.PrintTaskDefinitionCreated Triggered when and a print task is started in Universal Print.

Example event

When an event is triggered, the Event Grid service sends data about that event to subscribing destinations. This section contains an example of what that data would look like for each Microsoft Security Alert event.
