Events, connections and requests, worked for you
A companion works the 4 operations your Hookdeck account exposes. It can create a connection, and every one of those waits on an approval card showing the event before it changes.
Open the event. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Hookdeck afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a event until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Hookdeck exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 4 operations, 3 reads and 1 write. In practice that means it can create a connection, and work across the events, connections and requests.
The Hookdeck API stops at Hookdeck. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Which Hookdeck events does a companion see?
3 of the 4 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can retrieve request events, retrieve all requests and retrieve all events, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Hookdeck's documentation.
The events are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the connections. A companion can hold all 4 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Hookdeck admin becomes a queue you review.
- Retrieve Request Events
- Retrieve all Requests
- Retrieve all Events
Who signs off on a new connection?
The one write operation there is waits for you.
A companion can create a connection, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the event, the field and the new value before it lands in Hookdeck.
Nothing in Hookdeck is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the event exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Create Connection
Can the events pass run every Monday?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Hookdeck events pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the engineering admin, the Hookdeck events sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
