Webhooks Introduction

Visiwise webhooks allow you to receive real-time notifications about events happening in your Visiwise workspace. Instead of continuously polling the API for updates, webhooks push event data directly to your application when specific events occur.

What are Visiwise Webhooks?

Visiwise webhooks are HTTP callbacks that send event notifications to a URL you specify whenever certain events happen in your Visiwise workspace. This enables you to:

  • Receive real-time updates about shipment status changes, milestone events, and other important activities
  • Build reactive integrations that respond immediately to changes in your shipment data
  • Reduce API polling and improve efficiency by only receiving data when events actually occur
  • Automate workflows by triggering actions in your systems based on webhook events

Activating Webhook Integration

To enable webhook integration for your workspace, you need to contact our sales team. They will activate your webhook integration and ensure your integration is configured correctly.
