Azure Devops Extension Actions

I am developing a service hook extension for Azure DevOps that is loosely based on the sample provided on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/extend/develop/add-service-hook?view=azure-devops

I cannot find any documentation on the available actions. For example, the sample provides a sample consumer with an action of publishEvent but there is no reference material on this.

Could someone please point me toward any reference documentation that might exist?

Maybe this document can make some help for you? Feel free to let me know if it's not helpful :) – LoLance
I don't believe this was what I needed. How does one, for example, make a HTTP POST with a custom content as the action on a serviceHook event? – user3475441
@LanceLi-MSFT i fear this is not really helpful. I cannot find any documentation about custom service hooks, beside the sample from the question. – Tobias Theel

It's only supported to send standard event payload with custom service hooks for now. In the sample, you can see the action defined as below:

        "actions": [
            {
                "id": "performAction",
                "name": "Perform action",
                "description": "Posts a standard event payload",
                "supportedEventTypes": [
                    "git.push",
                    "git.pullrequest.created",
                    "git.pullrequest.updated"
                ],
                "publishEvent": {
                    "url": "{{{url}}}",
                    "resourceDetailsToSend": "all",
                    "messagesToSend": "all",
                    "detailedMessagesToSend": "all"
                }
            }
        ]

With this setting, it will send all the payload about the trigger event to the URL you configured. And you can configure how much of the information to send:

resourceDetailsToSend - all, minimal, none
messagesToSend - all, text, html, markdown, none
detailedMessagesToSend - all, text, html, markdown, none
