Prerequisites

Good to Know

  • To receive webhook notifications, the app or service at the notification endpoint URL must be able to process HTTP POST requests
  • Webhooks can be associated with events that occur at runtime, or they can be associated with events that are related to security — for example, groups, roles, and delegations. These two types of events can not be combined in the same webhook.
  • When you associate a webhook with an app, process model, orprocess instance, the webhook is limited to the context of the specified app, process model, or process instance. This choice is for organizational purposes. Because the events for which a webhook listens are runtime events, all the events actually occur in process instances (or application instances if they are form-based apps). In other words, if you associate a webhook with a process model, webhook notifications are send for all process instances associated with that process model. If you associate a webhook with an app, webhook notifications are sent for the process instances associated with all process models within the app.
