Webhooks Guide
Purpose: This document is intended to provide a high level overview and functionality of Webhooks within the Levelpath Platform.
What are Webhooks?
Webhooks are automated notifications from one application to another when an event occurs. Users may utilize webhooks on Levelpath to notify another application of events occurring in a project.
How do Webhooks work?
A webhook can be configured to trigger a notification to an outside application when a step is ready to be completed in a project. The webhook will connect to the middleware, then out to the endpoint. It will then be able to publish information to the additional application to efficiently complete all steps needed in a project.
How do you configure Webhooks on Levelpath?
Note: The Organization Admin will likely need to utilize their company’s technical support to complete the webhook configuration.
To utilize webhooks via Levelpath, the Organization Administrator can subscribe to a set of events on their tenant settings page. Once an event subscription is enabled, this process occurs company-wide.
Levelpath requires the Destination Endpoint to be added. This would be the company’s chosen middleware. Example: Zapier
The Signing Secret is important to validate the data received that it in fact, originated from Levelpath. The Signing Secret is used on the event download endpoint via the Organization Administrator or the company’s IT support. Example: Jira
NOTE: This is our first iteration of the Webhook process. All Levelpath webhook configuration is based on Standard Webhooks. More information may be found here. We welcome any feedback in order to continue to evolve this.
