Originally created by @jeremystretch on 1/23/2026

Deprecated Functionality

The username and request_id attributes included with each event for processing will be removed.

Scheduled removal

v4.7.0

Justification

These attributes are redundant: The user and request ID are included on the request object already included as context data.

Impact

Any custom event processors which rely on this data will need to be updated to reference request.user.username and/or request.request_id.
