Event Types

A reference guide to all App Store Connect webhook events and App Store Server Notification V2 events supported by Yeethook.

Yeethook listens for two kinds of Apple events: App Store Connect webhook events (operational events like build processing and app review) and App Store Server Notifications V2 (in-app purchase and subscription lifecycle events). This page explains every event type Yeethook supports.


App Store Connect Events

These events are delivered via App Store Connect webhooks (introduced at WWDC 2025). They cover the operational lifecycle of your app — builds, reviews, TestFlight, and more. In Quick Start mode, Yeethook configures these webhooks automatically.

Builds

App Store Server Notifications V2

These events are delivered via App Store Server Notifications. They cover the lifecycle of in-app purchases and auto-renewable subscriptions. In Quick Start mode, Yeethook registers the notification URL for each of your apps automatically.

Subscriptions

SUBSCRIBEDA customer subscribed to an auto-renewable subscription for the first time, or re-subscribed after expiration.
DID_RENEWAn auto-renewable subscription successfully renewed for a new billing period.
DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUSA customer changed their subscription renewal status — for example, turned off auto-renew.

DID_FAIL_TO_RENEWA subscription failed to renew due to a billing issue such as an expired payment method.
EXPIREDA subscription expired and is no longer active.
GRACE_PERIOD_EXPIREDThe billing grace period after a failed renewal has ended without successful payment.

Offers
