Configure event subscriptions in Workfront
The information on this page refers to functionality not yet generally available. It is available only in the Preview Sandbox environment.
As an Adobe Workfront administrator, you can create, view, and delete event subscriptions from the Setup area. Event subscriptions send Workfront event information to an external endpoint when specified events occur.
You can create and delete event subscriptions in Workfront, but you cannot edit an existing subscription. If you need to change a subscription, delete it and create a new one.
For more information about event subscriptions, see the articles under Event Subscriptions.
