Integrate AI chatbots with HostedHooks

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Webhook with HostedHooks

1. Sign Up for HostedHooks
   Go to HostedHooks and create an account if you don't have one.

2. Obtain Your API Key
   After logging in, navigate to your account settings to find your API key. This key will be used to authenticate your requests.

3. Create an App
   In the dashboard, create a new app. This app will be associated with the webhook you are setting up.

4. Set Up the Webhook Endpoint
   Determine the endpoint URL where you want to receive the webhook data. This is typically a URL on your server that can handle incoming POST requests.

5. Configure Event Types
   Specify the event types you want to listen for, such as user.created. This tells HostedHooks which events will trigger the webhook.

6. Send Data to the Webhook
   Use the API to send data to your webhook endpoint. Here’s an example of how to do this in code:

   const { HostedHooks } = require("hostedhooks-node");
   const hostedhooks_client = new HostedHooks("YOUR_API_KEY");
   hostedhooks_client.create_app_message("YOUR_APP_UUID", {
       data: {
           user: {
               id: user.id,
               created_at: user.created_at,
           },
       },
       event_type: "user.created",
   });
   

7. Test Your Webhook
   Trigger the event (e.g., create a user) to test if the webhook is working correctly. Check your server logs to see if the data is received as expected.

8. Monitor and Debug
   Use the HostedHooks dashboard to monitor webhook activity and troubleshoot any issues that arise.
