The Partner Center Webhook APIs allow partners to register for resource change events. These events are delivered in the form of HTTP POSTs to the partner's registered URL. To receive an event from Partner Center, partners host a callback where Partner Center can POST the resource change event. The event is digitally signed so that the partner can verify that it was sent from Partner Center. Webhook notifications are only triggered to the environment that has the latest configuration for Co-sell.

Partner Center supports the following Webhook events.

  • Azure Fraud Event Detected ("azure-fraud-event-detected")

    This event is raised when Azure fraud event is detected.

  • Delegated Admin Relationship Approved Event ("dap-admin-relationship-approved")

    This event is raised when the Delegated Admin Privileges are approved by the customer tenant.

  • Reseller Relationship Accepted by Customer Event ("reseller-relationship-accepted-by-customer")

    This event is raised when the customer tenant approves the Reseller Relationship.

  • Indirect Reseller Relationship Accepted by Customer Event ("indirect-reseller-relationship-accepted-by-customer")

    This event is raised when the customer tenant approves the Indirect Reseller Relationship.

  • Delegated Admin Relationship Terminated Event ("dap-admin-relationship-terminated")

    This event is raised when the customer terminates the Delegated Admin Privileges.

  • Dap Admin Relationship Terminated By Microsoft Event ("dap-admin-relationship-terminated-by-microsoft")

    Note

    The Subscription Active webhook and corresponding Activity Log Event are only available for Sandbox tenants at this time.

  • Subscription Pending Event ("subscription-pending")

    This event is raised when the corresponding order has been succesfully received and subscription creation is pending.

    Note

    The Subscription Pending webhook and corresponding Activity Log Event are only available for Sandbox tenants at this time.

  • Subscription Renewed Event ("subscription-renewed")

    This event is raised when the subscription completes renewal.

    Note

    The Subscription Renewed webhook and corresponding Activity Log Event are only available for Sandbox tenants at this time..

  • Subscription Updated Event ("subscription-updated")

    This event is raised when the subscription changes. These events are generated when there is an internal change in addition to when changes are made through the Partner Center API.

    Note

    There is a delay of up to 48 hours between the time a subscription changes and when the Subscription Updated event is triggered.

  • Test Event ("test-created")

    This event allows you to self-onboard and test your registration by requesting a test event and then tracking its progress. You can see the failure messages that are being received from Microsoft while trying to deliver the event. This restriction only applies to "test-created" events. Data older than seven days is purged.

  • Threshold Exceeded Event ("usagerecords-thresholdExceeded")

    This event is raised when the amount of Microsoft Azure usage for any customer exceeds their usage spending budget (their threshold). For more information, see (Set an Azure spending budget for your customers/partner-center/set-an-azure-spending-budget-for-your-customers).

Future Webhook events will be added for resources that change in the system that the partner isn't in control of, and further updates will be made to get those events as close to "real time" as possible. Feedback from Partners on which events add value to their business is useful in determining what new events to add.

For a complete list of Webhook events supported by Partner Center, see Partner Center webhook events.

Prerequisites

  • Credentials as described in Partner Center authentication. This scenario supports authentication with both standalone App and App+User credentials.

Receiving events from Partner Center

To receive events from Partner Center, you must expose a publicly accessible endpoint. Because this endpoint is exposed, you must validate that the communication is from Partner Center. All Webhook events that you receive are digitally signed with a certificate that chains to the Microsoft Root. A link to the certificate used to sign the event is also be provided. This allows the certificate to be renewed without you having to redeploy or reconfigure your service. Partner Center makes 10 attempts to deliver the event. If the event is still not delivered after 10 attempts, it is moved into an offline queue and no further attempts are made at delivery.

The following sample shows an event posted from Partner Center.

POST /webhooks/callback
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Signature VOhcjRqA4f7u/4R29ohEzwRZibZdzfgG5/w4fHUnu8FHauBEVch8m2+5OgjLZRL33CIQpmqr2t0FsGF0UdmCR2OdY7rrAh/6QUW+u+jRUCV1s62M76jbVpTTGShmrANxnl8gz4LsbY260LAsDHufd6ab4oejerx1Ey9sFC+xwVTa+J4qGgeyIepeu4YCM0oB2RFS9rRB2F1s1OeAAPEhG7olp8B00Jss3PQrpLGOoAr5+fnQp8GOK8IdKF1/abUIyyvHxEjL76l7DVQN58pIJg4YC+pLs8pi6sTKvOdSVyCnjf+uYQWwmmWujSHfyU37j2Fzz16PJyWH41K8ZXJJkw==
X-MS-Certificate-Url: https://3psostorageacct.blob.core.windows.net/cert/pcnotifications-dispatch.microsoft.com.cer
X-MS-Signature-Algorithm: rsa-sha256
Host: api.partnercenter.microsoft.com
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Content-Length: 195

{
    "EventName": "test-created",
    "ResourceUri": "http://localhost:16722/v1/webhooks/registration/test",
    "ResourceName": "test",
    "AuditUri": null,
    "ResourceChangeUtcDate": "2017-11-16T16:19:06.3520276+00:00"
}

Note

The Authorization header has a scheme of "Signature". This is a base64 encoded signature of the content.

How to authenticate the callback

To authenticate the callback event received from Partner Center, follow these steps:

  1. Verify the required headers are present (Authorization, x-ms-certificate-url, x-ms-signature-algorithm).
  2. Download the certificate used to sign the content (x-ms-certificate-url).
  3. Verify the Certificate Chain.
  4. Verify the "Organization" of the certificate.
  5. Read the content with UTF8 encoding into a buffer.
  6. Create an RSA Crypto Provider.
  7. Verify the data matches what was signed with the specified hash algorithm (for example SHA256).
  8. If the verification succeeds, process the message.

Note

By default, the signature token is sent in an Authorization header. If you set SignatureTokenToMsSignatureHeader to true in your registration, the signature token is sent in the x-ms-signature header instead.

Event model

The following table describes the properties of a Partner Center event.

Send a test event to validate your registration

Generates a test event to validate the Webhooks registration. This test is intended to validate that you can receive events from Partner Center. Data for these events is deleted seven days after the initial event is created. You must be registered for the "test-created" event, using the registration API, before sending a validation event.

Note

There is a throttle limit of 2 requests per minute when posting a validation event.
