Manage-AutomationWebHook GitHub Action

The Manage-AutomationWebHook action provides a seamless experience for managing Azure Automation Account Webhooks. It checks for webhook expiration in the automation account and automatically creates a new instance when the webhook is about to expire.

Integrate this action into your GitHub workflow to fully automate your Webhook deployments!

How does it work?

The logic of this action relies on a predefined directory structure, primarily focusing on the Definitions folder where your webhook JSON definitions are stored.

Directory tree example:

text -Definitions -Webhooks -my-webhook.json -Source -Common

Webhook Definition Example

Example of a webhook file named my-webhook.json: json { "Name": "my-webhook", "RunbookName": "test", "IsEnabled": true, "ExpiryTime": "2026-12-31T00:00:00Z" }
