Webhooks

Using webhooks (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webhookarrow-up-right), you can have your external systems notified in real time when specific events occur in your atfinity tenant.

When a trigger fires, atfinity sends an HTTP POST request to the URL(s) you have configured for that trigger. The request body is a JSON object and the following headers are always included:
