Problem
Plumber’s loop-guard currently uses a simple heuristic: if updatedBy.email is missing, it assumes the change came from an API key/automation and rejects the webhook to avoid infinite loops.
GatherSG’s “Update case → Send webhook” sequence sends:
No email ⇒ Plumber flags it as automation-originated ⇒ rejected.
Solution
updatedBy.name === 'Workflow'and it contains bothcreatedBy.emailandcreatedBy.nameto avoid potential infinite loop where API creates case and triggers an instant workflow back to PlumberTests
