contact.deleted

Contact was deleted.

Raw markdown

When it is emitted

The contact delete API emits contact.deleted after deletion succeeds.

Payload

OpenSend sends this event in the standard webhook envelope:

json

{
  "id": "whd_delivery-id_1",
  "type": "contact.deleted",
  "created_at": "2026-05-10T00:00:00.000Z",
  "data": {}
}

Payload includes the deleted contact id and email.

Handling guidance

Verify svix-id, svix-timestamp, and svix-signature before processing. Store idempotency by delivery ID or by the domain/email/contact ID in data so retries and replays do not duplicate downstream side effects.
