Set up webhooks

To start sending webhooks to an app, Ecwid needs this information:

Provide Ecwid team with webhook URL and webhook events to set for your application.

Learn more about setting up webhooks below.

Set webhook URL

After you registered your application with Ecwid, please contact us and provide a single webhook URL for all events your app subscribed to.

Ecwid will send a request to this URL each time a supported event occurs. To enable or change webhook URL for existing application, please contact us as well.

📘

Apps for public use

If your application is for public use, the request URL must be working via HTTPS. Also, the certificate can only be from trusted CA's and not self-signed.

Using ports in webhook URL

If you are planning to use specific ports in your URL, make sure you are using: '80' or '443', or anything between '1024:65535' ports. Otherwise, the webhooks will not be sent to your URL.

Set webhook events

There are several types of events in the store that Ecwid can notify your application about, check out Supported webhook events section for more details.

Please specify the exact event types you wish to be notified about upon registering your application or contact us if you already have an app.

Set custom HTTP headers (optional)

You are also able to specify your custom HTTP headers to be provided by Ecwid when sending webhooks to your URL. If you want to add custom headers to your app, please contact us. Learn more about custom HTTP headers

Get access

Each application requests access scopes from a store owner. The same set of access scopes is used to send webhooks to your app.

To be notified of updates to products, make sure your app has read_catalog access scope. The read_orders scope allows to get order-related webhooks and so on.

See Supported webhook events for more details.
