A Webhook is an API that delivers data from applications when an action or event occurs. When an event is triggered within the source site, it is seen by the Webhook, which collects the data and sends it to the desired application or URL in the form of an HTTP request. Webhooks are also instant, triggering the delivery of data in real-time, this makes them faster and easier to implement than other methods, like polling.
