Overview

A webhook is a simple way for two systems to talk to each other. When something happens on your marketplace, the Webhooks plugin automatically sends a message to a web address you choose — for example your accounting software, your CRM, or a team chat tool.

Examples

• New user signs up → notify your sales team in a chat channel.
• An order is paid → record the sale in your accounting software.
• A withdrawal is requested → alert your finance team.
• A subscription is activated → grant access to an external membership system.

What you can set

• Choose which events trigger a message.
• Point each webhook at its own web address.
• Use a shared secret so the receiving system can verify the message really came from you.
• See a log of every message sent, including failures, and retry failed messages.

What you need

To receive webhooks, the other system must provide a web address (often called an "endpoint URL") that can accept messages. If you are not connecting to another system, you can leave this plugin off.
