Webhooks allow the Method API to notify your application when certain events occur.

To receive Webhook notifications, create a Webhook by registering a URL pointing to your application where triggered events should be sent to. This URL is where Method will send event information in an HTTPS POST request.

​
Handling webhooks

A Webhook event is considered successfully delivered when the corresponding URL endpoint responds with an HTTP status code of 200 within 5 seconds.

If the criteria is not met, Method will reattempt 4 more times with each new attempt being delayed according to an exponential backoff algorithm, where the delay period between each attempt exponentially increases.

Webhooks that consistently fail to respond with a 200 will automatically be disabled.
