Any chance the user_badge webhooks could include username along with user_id? Currently the payload for a user_badge event looks like this: { "user_badge": { "id": 123456, "granted_at": "2026-09-25T14:54:42.073Z", "created_at": "2026-09-26T05:34:12.965Z", "post_id": 234567, "p…

FWIW, my workaround for non-standard webhooks or when I need additional data is to do it via Workflows and then send that to n8n.

What’s the issue with an admin API key? This is supposed to be a background job ig?

This brings up the interesting point of why isn’t there a public-facing endpoint to get a user by id that shows only public fields, if login_required is not selected. It would be useful, no? I wonder why it was not made. Or maybe only logged in users could get such a privilege, but either way, there…

This is because for all matters and purposes user IDs are essentially an internal convention in discourse and we are expected to rely on usernames that are much more prominent across the board.

Which brings us back to the original request. The webhook should adhere to that concept and send the username, not the user ID.

[图片] RGJ: Which brings us back to the original request. The webhook should adhere to that concept and send the username, not the user ID. Agreed! This seems like the best solution. Adding username and granted_by_username and deprecating user_id and granted_by_id could allow for a non-breaking…

最小权限原则。这个外部服务将运行在另一台服务器上，只需要对 Discourse 的只读访问权限即可完成其工作。在基础设施中流传的主密钥越少越好。
