Portal event subscriptions
Real-time delivery of Bitrix24 events (for example ONTASKADD, ONTASKUPDATE, ONCRMDEALADD) to an application on a Black Hole server, without polling. The platform registers an event handler in Bitrix24 under the server's OAuth application and delivers each event to the application through the tunnel — with retries and wake-up of a sleeping server.
Scope: vibe:infra
Subscriptions are managed by the API key that owns the server. Receiving events does not require a public URL: delivery is managed and passes through the Black Hole tunnel.
Requirements
Push delivery works only for a server bound to a vibe_app_ authorization key — that is, to a Bitrix24 OAuth application. Under a regular vibe_api_ API key or a vibe_live_ management key you cannot register an event handler, and creating a subscription returns 400 NOT_OAUTH_APP. Registering an event in Bitrix24 is available only on a commercial plan — on the free plan it returns 502 BIND_FAILED.
How to get a server under an authorization key
There is no separate migration of an existing server from a regular key to an authorization key — a server under an authorization key is created from scratch. An existing server on vibe_api_ or vibe_live_ keeps working through polling, and it cannot be re-bound to an authorization key "in place". Steps:
- Create an authorization key.
POST /v1/appsor the application-creation form in the dashboard registers an OAuth application on the Bitrix24 account and returns avibe_app_key. You do not need to register the application in Bitrix24 manually — the platform does it for you. See Keys and authorization. - Authorize the application on the Bitrix24 account. Open or install the application on the Bitrix24 account and complete OAuth authorization. After that Bitrix24 passes the platform an
application_tokenand a user OAuth token. Withoutapplication_token, creating a subscription returns400 NOT_OAUTH_APP. Without a user OAuth token —400 NO_USER_TOKEN. The authorization flow — Keys and authorization. - Create a new server under this key.
POST /v1/infra/serverswith avibe_app_key — the server will be bound to the OAuth application. - Move the application to the new server via a regular deploy (Deploy) and subscribe to events.
The 400 NOT_OAUTH_APP and 400 NO_USER_TOKEN responses contain a hint field with these same steps — in case you reached the subscription step via the API.
Create a subscription
POST /v1/infra/servers/:id/event-subscriptions
Registers a Bitrix24 event handler under the server's OAuth application. After creation, the platform delivers every event of the specified type to the application at the appPath path. The server must be backed by a vibe_app_ authorization key — the prerequisites and the order for creating such a server are described in the Portal event subscriptions section.

Error response example
400 — the server is not backed by an OAuth application:
{
"success": false,
"error": {
"code": "NOT_OAUTH_APP",
"message": "Server is not backed by an OAuth app with a B24 application token"
}
}
Errors
| HTTP | Code | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | INVALID_EVENT |
The event code is empty or does not match the format ^[A-Z][A-Z0-9_]+$ |
| 400 | INVALID_APP_PATH |
appPath does not start with / or contains control characters |
| 400 | NOT_OAUTH_APP |
The server is not backed by an OAuth application with an application_token. The response contains a hint field with the order for creating such a server |
| 400 | NO_USER_TOKEN |
The application has no OAuth token — authorize the application on the portal first. The response contains a hint field |
| 404 | NOT_FOUND |
The server was not found or belongs to another API key |
| 409 | EVENT_BOUND_ELSEWHERE |
This event is already bound to another server of the same application — delete the previous subscription first |
| 502 | BIND_FAILED |
Bitrix24 rejected the event registration — for example, the portal is not on a commercial plan |

Known specifics
- Calling again with the same
(server, event)pair updates the subscription. If a subscription for this event already exists on the same server, calling again updatesappPathand returns200— suitable for re-running setup scripts.
