Overview

Webhooks allow you to receive real-time notifications when events occur in your Aktify campaigns. When you register a webhook, Aktify sends HTTP POST requests to your URL whenever specific events happen.

You configure webhooks yourself in the Aktify Portal. When you create a webhook you set a secret that Aktify uses to sign each request, so you can verify that incoming events genuinely came from Aktify. See Setting Up a Webhook for step-by-step instructions.
