Integrate AI chatbots with Webhooks.io

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Webhook on Webhooks.io

1. Sign Up and Log In

   • Create an account on Webhooks.io and log in to access the dashboard.

2. Access the Management Console

   • Navigate to the "Webhooks" section under the user menu to access the Embeddedable Management Console.

3. Create a New Subscription

   • Use the REST API to create a new webhook subscription. You can do this by making a POST request to the API endpoint:

   curl -X POST \
   -H "Authorization: Bearer {Your-API-Token}" \
   -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
   -d 'name=Request Bin&endpoint_url=http://requestb.in/15iaub51&header_prefix=Your-Service&headers_to_include=event_type,outgoing_message_id,attempt_id,user_agent' \
   "https://api.webhooks.io/v1/accounts/{account_id}/applications/{application_id}/consumers/{consumer_id}/destinations"
   

4. Configure Your Webhook

   • Specify the name, endpoint_url, and any headers you wish to include in the request.

5. Test Your Webhook

   • Once created, test the webhook by sending a sample event to the endpoint and ensure it is received correctly.

6. Monitor and Manage

   • Use the Management Console to monitor webhook requests, view logs, and manage subscriptions as needed.

7. Utilize the Provider Proxy (Optional)

   • If you have existing webhook functionality, consider using the Provider Proxy to offload delivery aspects to Webhooks.io, which handles retries and transformations automatically.

By following these steps, you can effectively create and manage webhooks using the Webhooks.io platform.
