Webhooks are a way for applications to communicate with each other in real-time by sending data between them when specific events occur. They are a type of event-based API that can be used to automate workflows and responses. Here are some things to know about webhooks:
A webhook is triggered by an event in a source system and sends an HTTP request to a destination system. The destination system receives the request and the data it contains, known as the payload.
Webhooks can be used to connect different applications, such as an online store and an email vendor. For example, when someone signs up for a mailing list, the store can send a webhook to the email vendor to send a coupon to the user's inbox.
While both webhooks and APIs can be used to communicate between applications, they work in different ways. An API is a set of protocols for building and interacting with applications, while a webhook is a way for one application to notify another when an event occurs.
