Webhooks are user-defined HTTP callbacks that allow one application to send real-time data to another whenever a specific event occurs. Unlike traditional APIs, which require polling for updates, webhooks push data to your application as soon as an event happens, making them a more efficient way to handle real-time interactions.
Receive immediate notifications about events, allowing your application to react instantly.
Eliminate the need for constant polling, which can save bandwidth and reduce server load.
Webhooks can simplify integrations by allowing services to communicate without complex API calls.

Webhooks are triggered by specific events, such as a new user signup or a payment confirmation.
The receiving application processes the data as it arrives, allowing for immediate action without waiting for a response.
Webhooks typically send data in a predefined format (usually JSON) to a specified URL.
