### Configuring webhook

1. Name of the webhook
2. Select the event for which webhook needs to be triggered

| Trigger                      | Details                                     |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| After Record Insert          | After a single record is inserted           |
| After Record Update          | After a single record is updated            |
| After Record Delete          | After a single record is deleted            |
| After Multiple Record Insert | After bulk records are inserted             |
| After Multiple Record Update | After bulk records are updated              |
| After Multiple Record Delete | After bulk records are deleted              |
| Manual Trigger               | Manually trigger webhook using button field |

3. Method & URL: Configure the endpoint to which webhook needs to be triggered. Supported methods are GET, POST, DELETE, PUT, HEAD, PATCH
4. Headers & Parameters: Configure Request headers & parameters (optional)
5. Condition: Only records meeting the configured criteria will trigger webhook (optional)
6. Test webhook (with sample payload) to verify if parameter are configured appropriately (optional)
7. Save the webhook

For more information on **Manual Trigger** webhook & its use with **Button** field, refer [here](/docs/product/tables/fields/field-types/custom-types/button)

### Webhook with conditions

In case of webhook with conditions, only records meeting the configured criteria will trigger webhook. For example, trigger webhook only when `Status` is `Complete`. You can also configure multiple conditions using `AND` or `OR` operators. For example, trigger webhook only when `Status` is `Complete` and `Priority` is `High`.

Webhook will be triggered only when the configured condition wasn't met before the record was updated. For example, if you have configured webhook with condition `Status` `is` `Complete` and `Priority` `is` `High` and you update the record with `Status` `Complete` and `Priority` `Low` to `High`, webhook will be triggered. However, if you update any other fields of the record with `Status` `Complete` and `Priority` `High`, webhook won't be triggered.

In summary, webhook will be triggered only when `Condition(old-record) = false` and `Condition(new-record) = true`.

### Webhook with custom payload

You can set up a personalized payload for your webhook. Just head to the `Body` tab to make the necessary configurations. Users can utilize [handlebar syntax](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/#simple-expressions), which allows them to access and manipulate the data easily.

Use `{{ json event }}` to access the event data. Sample response is as follows

```json
{
  "type": "records.after.insert",
  "id": "0698517a-d83a-4e72-bf7a-75f46b704ad1",
  "data": {
    "table_id": "m969t01blwprpef",
    "table_name": "Table-2",
    "view_id": "vwib3bvfxdqgymun",
    "view_name": "Table-2",
    "rows": [
      {
        "Id": 1,
        "Tags": "Sample Text",
        "CreatedAt": "2024-04-11T10:40:20.998Z",
        "UpdatedAt": "2024-04-11T10:40:20.998Z"
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

#### Discord Webhook

Discord webhook can be configured to send messages to a Discord channel. Discord request body should contain content, embeds or attachments, otherwise request will fail. Below is an example of Discord webhook payload. More details can be found [here](https://birdie0.github.io/discord-webhooks-guide/discord_webhook.html)

```json
{
  "content": "Hello, this is a webhook message",
  "embeds": [
    {
      "title": "Webhook",
      "description": "This is a webhook message",
      "color": 16711680
    }
  ]
}
```

To send complete event data to Discord, use below payload

```
{
  "content" : {{ json ( json event ) }}
}
```

One can also customize the payload as per the requirement. For example, to send only the `Title` field to Discord, use below payload. Note that, the value of `content` is what that will get displayed in the Discord channel.

```
{
   "content": "{{ event.data.rows.[0].Title }}"
}
```

## Environment Variables

In self-hosted version, you can configure the following environment variables to customize the webhook behavior.

* NC\_ALLOW\_LOCAL\_HOOKS: Allow localhost based links to be triggered. Default: false

Find more about environment variables [here](/docs/self-hosting/environment-variables)
