Webhooks Overview

A webhook is a software architecture approach that allows applications and services to submit a web-based notification to other applications whenever a specific event occurs.

Use webhooks to be notified of events related to saaslogic flow, such as customer creation, subscription, and invoice. Webhooks are one way for a web application to send information to another application in real-time when a specific event occurs.

For instance, if you subscribed to the "invoice paid" webhook event, you will be notified whenever a Customer pays an invoice.

How Webhook Support instead of API?

As APIs operate on a request basis, each time when you need some data, you must send a request. When it comes to Webhooks, they are event-based. By configuring to a specific event, you will be alerted anytime that event takes place.
