What is Webhook?

Advanced

Webhook

A method in which the server sends a notification first when an event occurs. There is no need to keep asking, so it is efficient. However, delivery can fail or the same notification can arrive twice, so the handling logic has to be written to allow for duplicate and missed notifications.
