Webhooks

Webhooks connect Aglyn to the outside world. Outbound webhooks notify another system when something happens on your site; inbound webhooks let another system trigger something in Aglyn.

Plan availability

Business. Webhooks are a Business-tier feature.

Webhook steps run inside workflows

Outbound webhooks​

Send an HTTP request to a URL you control when a site event fires — for example, post to a Slack endpoint or your own API when an order is placed.

  1. Add an outbound webhook and paste the destination URL.
  2. Choose the event that should fire it.
  3. Save. Aglyn calls your URL with the event payload each time it fires.

Inbound webhooks​

Expose an endpoint that external systems can call to trigger Aglyn — for example to kick off a workflow from a third-party tool.

Tips​

  • Pair an outbound webhook with a workflow when you need to transform data before sending it.
  • Treat webhook URLs as secrets — anyone with the inbound URL can trigger it.
