Webhooks are now part of Events & Actions

2024-02

We've enhanced our platform by integrating presence, push, and history webhooks into Events & Actions (E&A). These substantial improvements streamline the setup and maintenance of webhooks, providing even more flexibility for system interaction. Now, you can send events not only to webhooks but also to services like S3, SQS, Kinesis, and more. You can also modify webhook URLs, set retry intervals, configure headers, and assign multiple webhooks to a single event. Activate E&A

Introducing PubNub's Presence Management

Now you can explore new Presence rules in PubNub's admin portal. Within Presence Management you can track specific Presence events such as: Join, Leave, TimeOut, State-Change, and Intervals. You can add Channel Patterns or Channel Groups, specify the events to track for each group, create as many rules as you need, and assign priorities to each rule. All the rules created within Presence Management are in real time. To learn more visit our docs.

Message-Level Encryption Updates

2023-12

Following an alert from Snyk about a potential medium-severity vulnerability in our SDKs' message-level encryption feature, our team moved quickly to proactively remedy the issue before any customers were negatively impacted by creating a solid solution that includes a new algorithm with sophisticated 256-bit encryption. We've also made our end-to-end encryption modular. Aside from increased security, our customers now have the option to bring their own encryption (BYOE) or opt out of this feature making their SDK lighter. PubNub is dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of security and continuously working to safeguard your data. Learn more
