Webhooks
- James Goodwin
Webhooks are used to share of-the-moment updates, completion and attendance data with a third-party system or LMS, and are typically used in combination with Fuse’s APIs to further enrich that data. A webhook can be thought of as a type of API, driven or triggered by an event in Fuse. Instead of one application making a request to another to receive a response, a webhook is a service that allows one program to send data to another as soon as a particular event takes place.
A list of available REST API endpoints can be found in the Admin panel of each Fuse instance.
How can I use a webhook?
To make use of an available webhook, please raise a ticket in the Fuse Customer Support portal, specifying the URL to which the notifications will be sent.
