{
  "from": {
    "number": "Recipients user ID"
  },
  "to": {
    "number": "Your user ID"
  },
  "event": {
        "type": "Follow",
        "reference": "A reference to the object or message that triggered the event",
        "custom": {
          "isUnblocked": "true or false"
        }
    },
    "timeUtc": "2022-10-10T12:00:00",
