Overview

The Webhooks app, powered by Svix, is a powerful tool that enables real-time event notifications for your integration needs. It allows you to broadcast events such as booking creations and attendee check-ins to various endpoints, including Zapier, Rollout, or your own custom integrations.

Key Features

  • Real-time event broadcasting

  • Secure and reliable webhook delivery through Svix.com as our provider

Getting Started

1. Installation

  1. Navigate to the apps section of the Experiences app

  2. Find the Webhooks app

  3. Click "Install" to enable the app

2. Accessing the Svix Dashboard

After installation, you'll see a link to the Svix dashboard. This is where you'll manage your webhook configurations.

3. Registering Endpoints

  1. In the Svix dashboard, locate the option to add a new endpoint

  2. Enter the URL of your webhook endpoint (e.g., your Zapier webhook URL or custom server endpoint)

  3. Configure any necessary authentication for your endpoint

4. Configuring Event Triggers

  1. In the Svix dashboard, find the event configuration section

  2. Select the events you want to trigger webhook notifications (e.g., booking created, attendee checked in)

  3. Map these events to your registered endpoints

Using Webhooks with Zapier

  1. Create a new Zap in Zapier

  2. Choose "Webhook" as the trigger app

  3. Select "Catch Hook" as the trigger event

  4. Copy the provided webhook URL

  5. Paste this URL as an endpoint in your Svix dashboard

  6. Configure the rest of your Zap to handle the incoming webhook data

Developing Custom Integrations

For developers looking to build custom integrations:

  1. Set up a server endpoint capable of receiving POST requests

  2. Register this endpoint URL in the Svix dashboard

  3. Implement logic to handle and process the incoming webhook payloads

  4. Ensure your endpoint can handle Svix's signature verification for security

Best Practices

  • Always verify the signature of incoming webhooks to ensure they're from a trusted source

  • Implement proper error handling and retries in your webhook consumers

  • Monitor your webhook deliveries and set up alerts for any persistent failures

Troubleshooting

  • If webhooks aren't being received, check your endpoint URL and ensure it's accessible

  • Verify that you've selected the correct events to trigger webhooks

  • Check your server logs for any errors in processing incoming webhooks
