Welcome to the Senja Webhook documentation 👋
Webhooks are a powerful tool for integrating different applications and services.
By using webhooks, you can automate workflows and receive real-time updates from other systems.
Now you can easily set up webhooks to receive notifications and trigger actions based on events that occur in Senja.
In this documentation, we'll walk you through how to use webhooks with Senja. Let's get started! 👍
Anatomy of Senja’s Webhooks
Webhooks consist of several key components:
- Webhook URL: This is the URL to which the webhook payload will be sent when an event occurs.
- Secret: This is an optional field that can be used to verify that the webhook was sent by Senja. When you set up a webhook, you can choose to include a secret in the payload. Senja will then sign the payload using this secret, and you can use it to verify that the payload was sent by Senja and has not been tampered with.
- Events: These are the events that you want to listen to. When an event occurs in your application, Senja will send a payload to the webhook URL that you specify. The payload will contain information about the event, such as the type of event and any associated data.
By specifying the webhook URL, secret (if desired), and events that you want to listen to, you can configure Senja to send webhook payloads to your application whenever specific events occur. This can be a powerful way to automate workflows and streamline your application's functionality.
