Hi everyone,

Are webhooks capable of restarting a related Space if it is stopped?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi @milyiyo, currently we don’t have a Webhook trigger event for when the Space is stopped or restarted. But it’s a good idea indeed.

You can restart a stopped Space programmatically via our API or using our `huggingface_hub` lib

> **[HfApi Client](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/main/en/package_reference/hf_api#huggingface_hub.HfApi.restart_space)**

Read more about our [Webhooks](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/webhooks#:~:text=Possible%20values%20for%20the%20associated%20action%3A%20%22create%22%2C%20%22delete%22%2C%20%22update%22%2C%20%22move%22) events

> - `"repo"` - Global events on repos. Possible values for the associated `action`: `"create"`, `"delete"`, `"update"`, `"move"`.
> - `"repo.content"` - Events on the repo’s content, such as new commits or tags. It triggers on new Pull Requests as well due to the newly created reference/commit. The associated `action` is always `"update"`.
> - `"repo.config"` - Events on the config: update Space secrets, update settings, update DOIs, disabled or not, etc. The associated `action` is always `"update"`.
> - `"discussion"` - Creating a discussion or Pull Request, updating the title or status, and merging. Possible values for the associated `action`: `"create"`, `"delete"`, `"update"`.
> - `"discussion.comment"` - Creating, updating, and hiding a comment. Possible values for the associated `action`: `"create"`, `"update"`.
