Create and manage webhooks

Manage a webhook

If you're an app admin, you can create, edit, activate, deactivate, or delete webhooks.

To manage webhooks:

Go to a table's Settings page and select Webhooks.
Select the checkbox for the webhook you want to manage and select Activate, Deactivate, or Delete. Deactivated webhooks do not fire.

Create a webhook

If you're an app admin, you can create a webhook from the Settings page.

To create a webhook:

Select Settings in the Page bar for the table for which you want to create a webhook.
Under Workflow & Permissions, select Webhooks.
Select the New Webhook button.
Configure the webhook.
Select Save.

Copy a webhook

If you want to create a webhook with a similar function to an existing webhook, you'll often find it useful to copy an existing webhook rather than start from scratch.

To copy a webhook:

1. Select Settings in the Page bar for the table that contains the webhook you want to copy.
2. Under Workflow & Permissions, select Webhooks.
3. Select the Copy icon () to the right of the webhook you want to copy.
  Note: The copy will not be active when you create it. Select it and select Activate to make it active.

Quickbase creates a copy of the webhook and adds copy to the end of the name. Quickbase will append copy for the first copy, copy 2 for the second, copy 3 for the third, and so on.

Edit a webhook

After you create a webhook, you can make changes to it. For example, you can change the Quickbase event that triggers the webhook, enter a new endpoint URL, use a different HTTP method, or change the action to be performed by the method you select.

Note: Only the creator of a webhook can edit it.

To edit a webhook:

Select Settings in the Page bar for the table that contains the webhook you want to edit.
Under Workflow & Permissions, select Webhooks.
Select the name of the webhook you want to edit.
Edit the webhook as you like.
Select Save.
