This Is How Webhooks Work
What Is a Webhook?
A webhook, also known as a web callback or HTTP push API, enables an application to instantly furnish other applications with real-time data. It delivers data to other applications promptly as events occur, ensuring immediate access to information. In contrast to conventional APIs that necessitate frequent polling for real-time data retrieval, webhooks offer a more efficient solution for both providers and consumers.
HTTP Method
Use the POST method for all of your webhook requests.
