EOS File Notification adds a customizable way to the EOS Workflow Engine to send file change notifications to other systems. It detects changes in watched folders and sends out alerts using different methods, like HTTP(S), gRPC, ActiveMQ, or Redis. Each alert uses a consistent JSON message that contains key file info, such as metadata, folder details, checksums, times, and user access info. This setup helps other services respond to file changes, track activity, or automate tasks, making it easier to share EOS file event updates outside the storage system.
