Webhook Payload Question

Recognize this is a basic question but I cannot find and detail - using the constituent webhook which notifies you when a constituent has changed does the webhook payload only provide you the constituent id for which you need need to call the constituent api endpoint to get the data

OR

does the webhook payload already have all of the data (new and/or old) thus there is rarely a need to call the actual constituent api endpoint.

    it has the constituent system id, id of the user that added the record, and id of the user that last modified the record (which for “constituent create webhook” it's the same as user that added the record.

    You will then have to use the constituent system id to get info.
