Document per-source property presence in the export payloads

[ada-avo]

Documents the sourcePresence / source_presence field added by AVO-2293. Pairs with the monorepo implementation PR — merge this only once that one has shipped, since until then the field does not exist on any workspace.

What changed

pages/reference/public-api/export-tracking-plan.mdx — a new "Per-source property presence" section with a sample payload and a field table.

pages/publishing/publishing/webhook-publishing.mdx — sourcePresence added to the PropertyRule table and source_presence to the Properties NDJSON line schema table, each with its own model table, plus a shared section explaining how to read the field.

The things a reader most needs told, and why

• It is opt-in per workspace and off by default. Both pages say so up front. Without that, a customer comparing the docs against their own payload concludes the field is missing in error and files a bug.
• The breakdown is complete over the sources the payload covers, alwaysSent entries included — so a missing entry is never a presence claim. This is what makes the field safe to consume: there is no inference to get backwards.
• It narrows under a source filter, exactly as required does. The one wrinkle is documented rather than hidden: in the JSON Schema format the event's sources array is not narrowed by the filter, so it can list sources the breakdown does not cover. Readers are told to match on sourceId and infer nothing about a listed source with no entry. (That asymmetry is pre-existing and tracked separately as AVO-3432.)
• The key can be absent, in exactly one case — the payload covers no source for that event — and is never [] or null.
• required is unchanged, and the breakdown decomposes it rather than replacing it. The one legacy configuration that diverges (a property using the older "excluded sources" setting reports neverSent for an excluded source while still being listed as required) is stated, because a consumer who hits it would otherwise read it as a bug.
• The warehouse heads-up. A NDJSON load job with a fixed schema — a BigQuery load with ignoreUnknownValues=false — rejects an unexpected column. Under the per-workspace opt-in this bites at enable time for one workspace rather than at deploy time for everyone, so it is worded as a "widen your schema first" note rather than an alarm.

How to test this PR

Prose only — no code. Review is reading the two pages. Worth checking that the "opt-in, off by default" line is prominent enough on each, since that is the sentence that prevents a support ticket.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation adds optional per-source property presence fields to webhook payloads and tracking plan export responses. It describes JSON Schema and NDJSON names, presence values, source filtering, omission rules, required behavior, and schema-loading considerations.

Changes

Per-source property presence documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Webhook presence fields pages/publishing/publishing/webhook-publishing.mdx	Documents the optional sourcePresence and source_presence fields, their presence values, source coverage, opt-in behavior, filtering rules, omission conditions, and warehouse schema considerations.
Export presence fields pages/reference/public-api/export-tracking-plan.mdx	Documents per-source presence fields in export responses, including JSON Schema and NDJSON names, example data, filtering rules, omission behavior, required semantics, and schema-loading considerations.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to e1941

The documentation should also explain when an entire property entry is omitted because all covered sources are never sent; otherwise readers may misinterpret a missing field. This is a localized, non-blocking documentation follow-up, and no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

A rabbit reads fields in a neat little row,
“Always” and “sometimes” now clearly show.
“Never” stays quiet when sources are bare,
JSON and NDJSON keep names with care.
Hop through the docs—presence is there!
