How to create a webhook?

Webhooks are automatic messages sent from apps when previously configured event takes place. They have a payload which is sent to a unique URL. Unlike other API requests, webhooks are instant and require less work on your end.

Webhooks at GetResponse let you send real-time data from GetResponse to any other platform you’re using.

Setting up a webhook

To set up webhooks:

Go Webhooks.
Click Create webhook.
Enter a Webhook name and a Webhook URL. This way, we’ll know where to send the data.
Pick the events to notify you of, so we know when we need to notify you.
Change the Webhook status to active and decide if you would like to enable Webhook batching. Click Create webhook.

You can configure your webhooks to send information about the following events:

Link clicked – to get notified every time a subscriber clicks a link in an email
Message opened – to get notified every time a contact opens an email.
Contact subscribed – to get notified when a subscriber is added.
Note: This event is not triggered by imports.
Contact copied – to get notified every time a contact is copied from one list to another.
Contact moved – to get notified every time a contact is moved from one list to another.
Contact unsubscribed – to get notified when a contact unsubscribes via unsubscribe link in an email.
SMS link clicked (available in GetResponse MAX only) – to get notified every time a contact clicks a link in a text message.
Custom field value changed – to get notified when existing contact’s custom field is assigned, unassigned or updated.
Note: This event is not triggered by updates via imports.
Contact import finished – to get notified when an import of subscribers is completed, and to get information about the status (success/failure) of the import.
Contact’s email changed – to get notified every time a subscriber’s email address has changed

Webhook batching

By default, each event is sent as an individual request, but you can merge many events into a single request by enabling Webhook batching. Batch supports delivering multiple events in a single HTTP request. The benefit of implementing batching is to have faster processing which is necessary for high-volume campaigns.
