What is the difference between a webhook and an API?

A webhook is a way for an app to provide other applications with real-time information. An API, on the other hand, is a set of rules that allows different software entities to communicate with each other.

Can you give me an example of how a webhook works?

Sure! For instance, when you receive a payment on a platform like Stripe, it can send a webhook to your server to notify you of the transaction.

How do I set up a webhook?

To set up a webhook, you typically need to provide a URL to the service you want to receive data from, and then configure the events you want to listen for.

Are there any downsides to using webhooks?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

Yes, webhooks can be less reliable than APIs because they depend on the sender's server to deliver the data. If the sender's server is down, you won't receive the information.
