Introducing Registrant.Left and Webinar.Ended Webhook Events

[Isaac03]

I'm excited to share an idea that could significantly enhance our experience on the Goto Webinar platform. Currently, we don't have access to two crucial webhook events: registrant.left and webinar.ended

Proposal:

1. Registrant.Left Webhook Event:

This event would provide real-time notifications when a registrant leaves a webinar before its completion.
Use case: Understand audience engagement and identify reasons for drop-offs, enabling targeted follow-ups.

2. Webinar.Ended Webhook Event:

This event would trigger when a webinar concludes, providing instant feedback on the session's completion.
Use case: Streamline post-webinar activities, gather attendance data promptly, and automate post-event communications.

I'm currently working on integrating GotoWebinar API into a system and I find it very strange that there does not seem to be a webhook event for when a registrant unregisters from a webinar. All I could find wre these events "registrant.added, registrant.joined, webinar.created, webinar.changed" which are completely useless in the context of a full integration. Having an event like "registrant.left" or "registrant.canceled" would be very basic and essential.  As of right now if a user registers to an event and then cancels it from the email, I have no way to track that event and update my database accordingly. Do your fkn job Gotowebinar, add some proper events, it's not that fkn hard since you've come a long way. I'm super frustrated as it makes my integration look like a half-assed job.
