Webhooks

A description on Zesty Webhooks and how to use them in production.

Open Perpetual Beta: Webhooks are available to all instances. We plan on expanding the payload of the webhook to include the data an meta data of affected resource.

Introduction

Webhooks allow for actions performed within the Zesty.io platform to trigger external actions via RESTful HTTP API calls. An example of such a use case would be to send out email or text message alerts to customers when a new blog article being published.

Webhook Conditions

Webhooks are executed by calling API endpoints. In order to create webhooks that will be triggered and executed by API calls, create webhooks with the following parameters. When an action occurs, such as content item creation, a search for the corresponding webhook will occur.

Example:

An item 7-ABCD-1234 corresponding to content model 6-ABCD-1234 has been updated in instance 8-ABCD-1234. Webhooks will be triggered based on the following action conditions.

Update on an item with ZUID 7-ABCD-1234 on an instance with ZUID 8-ABCD-1234
Update on any item belonging to content model 6-ABCD-1234 in instance 8-ABCD-1234
Update on any item in instance 8-ABCD-1234
