> Are the payloads for these events listed anywhere, or are the webhook payloads identical to the ones in the Discourse API?

I do not know of a list of the webhook payloads. The payloads are similar to what you see in the Discourse API documentation, but some fields are not included in the payload and in a few cases extra fields are added.

The easiest way I know of to see what gets sent in the payload is to configure a webhook on Discourse to point to `http://example.com` and then perform an action on the site to trigger the webhook. You can then see the payload by clicking the “Request” button from the webhook’s events list:

That screenshot is for a User Event webhook. You’ll see that the user’s email address is included in the payload.
