Paxform webhooks provide event-driven integration capabilities, pushing data to your systems in real-time rather than requiring you to poll for updates. When specified events occur—form submissions, approvals, status changes—Paxform immediately sends HTTP POST requests with complete event data to your configured endpoints, enabling instant processing and response.
This webhook functionality is perfect for organizations building real-time applications, implementing event-driven architectures, or integrating with systems that need immediate notification of form activity. Unlike scheduled polling that creates delays and wastes resources checking for changes that haven’t occurred, webhooks deliver information exactly when it’s needed, reducing latency and improving efficiency.
- Configure Webhook Endpoints
Define target URLs where Paxform should send event data. Specify authentication headers, content types, and custom configurations for each endpoint.
- Select Event Triggers
Choose which events should trigger webhook delivery—form submissions, approvals, rejections, comments, status changes, or custom workflow events.
- Test & Validate
Use webhook testing tools to verify your endpoint receives and processes Paxform data correctly. Review payload formats and implement error handling.
- Activate & Monitor
Enable webhooks for production use. Monitor delivery success rates, review failed delivery logs, and configure automatic retry behavior for resilience.
