Webhooks

Webhooks let you subscribe to events with callbacks

• user-defined HTTP callbacks
• triggered by some event, such as pushing code to a repository
• the client makes an HTTP request to the URL configured for the webhook
• the server reacts to request
• simple integration to web interfaces because data is sent via http
