WebHooks Request how is it looks like?

[Sebastian K]

Hello,

Currently I am working on WebHooks,
but from the documentation I can not get information how to get informations about Event
How they are sent? Inside HTTP Headers or query params ? I know that not in JSON body object.

Best regards

Hey Sebastian,

This is a great question, and one that our API documentation does a poor job of answering currently. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I’ll update our API documentation to answer this and I’ll also include the answer here.

Technically, for a webhook, we’ll make an HTTP POST to your webhook url and include a JSON serialized version of the object in the body of the POST. We’ll include the type of event as a header named Event in the HTTP POST.

I believe this is the information you are after, but let me know if I’m misinterpreting your question.

Cheers,
Mike

Hey Mike,

Thank you for your clarifications and fast reaction!
Now I can see that Event Header

Topic solved

Great, glad we were able to solve that one. Let me know if there is anything else I can answer.

@Mike-Stachowiak,

Is it possible to subscribe only to specific events or do you guys push all events to all webhooks we setup under Settings > API Access > Webhooks. I see these event types and curious what they are used for?

Thanks for your help!
