Introducing Webhook Shims
“Webhooks are user-defined HTTP callbacks. Something happens in an application (e.g. alert fired, change made, commit merged, etc) that some remote service cares about. It doesn’t matter why they care, they just want to be told that some event happened. It could be for auditing, or to start a workflow, or something else.”
