How to Setup Webhooks

TrustLayer allows for an easier way to communicate data between applications by using a Webhooks connection. This connection allows online apps with Webhook functionality to receive data from TrustLayer by communicating with your chosen unique URL — sort of like sending a message to a phone number or address — whenever specific events occur within the platform. See below how to setup the connection and the current event trigger types. 

Webhooks Setup 

1 To start, you’ll need a unique Webhook URL from the receiving app

2 Navigate to the TrustLayer API settings section and click on the Webhooks tab

3 Click Create New Webhook, paste the Webhook URL provided by the receiving app into the payload field, select desired events, and then click Create Webhook

4 Ensure the on/off toggle next to your new Webhook is blue

5 You have successfully setup a Webhook!
