Is there a webhook for reaction events?

AI-generated summary

There is currently no webhook event for reactions, but one is planned for the future. Roman_Rizzi acknowledged this limitation. Additionally, Roman_Rizzi confirmed that an issue with ‘like’ events not firing when triggered by categories or tags with the reactions plugin is a core bug, and a fix is already in progress via a PR: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/15568.

There’s one for ‘like’ events, but what about the reactions plugin?

And further, with the reactions plugin enabled, it seems that even when :heart: is used, there’s not a ‘like’ event — even though that’s configured in the plugin to map to “likes”.

There’s currently no webhook event for reactions, but we plan to add one in the future to stay consistent with likes.

It’s a core bug. The like webhooks won’t fire when a triggered category or tag is specified. I already have a PR, so expect it to be fixed soon:
