Rest API - Webhooks and Events

You set up a webhook but your app never receives notifications. Which of these is a likely cause?

AYour app is polling the webhook URL repeatedly

BYour app is sending POST requests to the webhook

CWebhooks use GET requests instead of POST

DThe webhook URL is incorrect or unreachable

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check webhook delivery requirements
Webhooks send POST requests to a URL your app provides. If the URL is wrong or unreachable, notifications won't arrive.
Step 2: Eliminate incorrect causes
Your app does not send POST requests to the webhook; the webhook sends them. Webhooks use POST, not GET. Polling is unrelated to webhook delivery.
Final Answer:
The webhook URL is incorrect or unreachable -> Option D
Quick Check:
Wrong URL = no notifications [OK]

Quick Trick: Check webhook URL correctness first [OK]
