 * `data` - A detailed representation of the object in its current state. This is typically equivalent to the model's representation in NetBox's REST API.
 * `snapshots` - Minimal "snapshots" of the object state both before and after the change was made; provided as a dictionary with keys named `prechange` and `postchange`. These are not as extensive as the fully serialized representation, but contain enough information to convey what has changed.

Any existing keys within this dictionary will be overwritten by subsequent callbacks which include those keys. To avoid collisions with webhook data provided by other plugins, consider namespacing your plugin's data within a nested dictionary as such:
