Fynd Platform Webhook
The Fynd Platform Webhook allows you to integrate with the Fynd Platform by receiving event-driven notifications in real-time. This webhook enables external systems to be notified of changes or events within the Fynd Platform, allowing seamless automation and data synchronization.
Overview
A Webhook is a lightweight HTTP callback that occurs when a specific event or trigger happens. Fynd Platform allows you to configure these webhooks to send notifications to a designated endpoint whenever certain events or actions take place in your system.
Configuration
To set up the Fynd Platform Webhook, you need to configure the following properties:
| Property | Description | Required | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name | The name of the trigger. This can be any descriptive name to identify the webhook. | true | |
| Fynd Platform Credentials | The credentials for authenticating with the Fynd Platform, typically provided in API tokens or keys. These are used to validate the request and ensure secure communication. | true |
How It Works
-
Trigger Configuration:
First, you configure a trigger on the Fynd Platform. This trigger will define what type of event should fire the webhook. The event could be anything such as a product update, an order change, or any other action within the platform. -
Webhook Endpoint:
Next, you provide a secure HTTP endpoint where the webhook notifications will be sent. This is usually the URL of your system or application that will receive the data from Fynd Platform. -
Authentication:
Fynd Platform requires authentication to ensure that the webhook notifications are coming from a trusted source. You can set up API keys or use other secure methods for authentication. -
Data Payload:
Once the trigger event occurs, Fynd Platform will send a payload to the provided webhook URL, containing relevant data about the event. This data is typically sent in JSON format, making it easy to process programmatically.
Security
Fynd Platform is a secure partner with Boltic. Your credentials are encrypted & can be removed at any time. This ensures that sensitive information, such as API tokens and authentication details, is kept safe throughout the webhook process.
