You can provide your endpoint to receive Connectly webhook events. When creating an endpoint you need to provide the following:

1. your endpoint address

2. webhook topic you are interested to receive events from

You can only register one endpoint address per each webhook topic.

Examples

To register your endpoint to receive client messages, you can send a post request to the above URL with:

{
    "topic":"messages",
    "address":"<YOUR_ENDPOINT>"
}1

Later when clients message back, you will receive a payload similar to the following:

{u'sender': {u'channelType': u'whatsapp', u'id': u'[phone]', u'name': u'Tom'}, u'timestamp': u'1661301940', u'buttonResponse': {u'text': u'Yes I'm interested', u'id': u'01GB6MZR50BY04MDAQH6TVYN40', u'payload': u'1'}, u'topic': u'messages', u'recipient': {u'channelType': u'whatsapp', u'id': u'[phone]', u'name': u'Business'}, u'metadata': None}
