Could usernames be included in user_badge webhook payload?

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 transition period.

Currently, if a badge is changed by the system (i.e., automatically), the webhook returns a granted_by_id of -1. What would be the equivalent for granted_by_username?

  • "" (empty string)
  • "<system>" (a magic value that couldn’t be a username)
  • null
  • Nothing – i.e., omit granted_by_username from the payload if it was a system-driven event

I would assume null or nothing would make the most sense.
