Webhooks
It is possible to register a webhook that will be called whenever a content request is modified.
You can set the webhook by contacting our support with your endpoints.
The webhook will be invoked with a PUT request containing
a JSON body, see below for the format. The webhook is invoked for the initial
creation of the request and for any state change. For test requests the state
will be changed to completed after around 10 seconds.
Callback format
The webhook format contains a type property and depending on the type more
properties that reflect the payload.
For a content request the format is:
{
"type": "content-request",
"request": ...content-request...
}
Take extra care to check if the type is content-request on incoming callbacks.
More types may be introduced as new features of the API are launched and for
future compatibility the type should always be checked.
Failures, retries and guarantees
When a call to a webhook fails due to the server being unreacahable or if the
server responds with anything other than a 200 OK the call will be marked as
failed. Failed calls are retried perodically with an increasing delay and
after 24 hours they will be permanently fail.
The order of which state changes reaches a webhook is not guaranteed. If a webhook call is delayed or failed it might mean that a change to a confirmed state is received after a change to completed. The dates on the request can help with some edge-cases and any errors can be resolved via a regular synchronization.
