How to connect/configure webhook to send notifications

Post by Reddi2 »

Since each mailing service has its own list of hook handlers, the functionality of triggers will differ for each platform.

The API interfaces and methods for calling hooks will also differ.

To set up sending data for a particular event, you need to refer to the service documentation.

The only plus is that all webhooks are transmitted in POST requests and use the same format (JSON).

Accordingly, no matter what the external service is, with the georgia phone number data correct configuration it will be possible to set up data exchange and processing of hooks from any mail service.

To protect data, special keys can be used (as with API), which simultaneously ensure client identification and cut off all illegitimate requests (if an external service cannot present a key, then its requests are simply ignored).

The algorithm for creating and configuring a new webhook looks something like this:

A new hook is created inside the main service that acts as a data source, for example, in an email newsletter service. To do this, you need to set its name and determine the message type (if there is a division by format). Plus, in some services it may be necessary to use/generate API keys for protection.
The address of the receiving service is specified for the hook. This can be a URL with a domain, or it can be a specific IP address, including the number of the called port (ports are specified after the colon).
On the receiving server (service), for example, in the CRM system, a web interceptor is configured. It will be responsible for receiving and parsing data from the JSON structure. Data received in the POST request can be entered into a single database, various triggers can work on their basis, etc.
