9️⃣Webhooks

This step is optional and can be done at any point. Active webhook subscription is not a pre-requisite for using OffBlocks API and is engineered for convenient asynchronous processing of events

If you want a simple test for webhook notifications, you can set up a catch-all webhook endpoint via https://webhook.site/. You will have a unique generated URL you can use to receive notifications from OffBlocks API.

Please, follow the steps from Webhooks to set up and manage webhook notifications. For example, to set up a webhook notification for all entities' updates as a POST request to https://webhook.site/81f3f721-303e-4b3c-899f-57db55aa5262, make a PUT request to /webhooks with the following payload:

{
    "callbackUrl": "https://webhook.site/81f3f721-303e-4b3c-899f-57db55aa5262",
    "types": [
        "customer.updated",
        "account.updated",
        "card.updated",
        "authorisation.updated",
        "transaction.updated"
    ]
}

Once you create a new customer entity in step Customer Creation, you will receive a notification similar to the following:
