Overview

Webhooks are real-time notifications that enable communication between different software systems and trigger automated processes. For example, for your online store, you can set up a webhook to alert you whenever a new product is added. Using fabric Copilot’s webhook functionality, you can create event subscriptions to monitor operations between fabric apps and external systems, such as a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) or Content Management Systems (CMS). You can create webhooks for the following applications in fabric:
