Webhook Visual Demo

One app sends an update to another app the moment something happens.

Click the button and watch the sender push an event to the receiver. That push is the webhook.

Sender App Idle

Store

The store creates an order. Instead of waiting for another app to ask about it, it immediately sends a webhook.
