A webhook allows your application to receive real-time HTTP notifications for events. Currently, this functionality is available for the following events:

  • A video indexing task has finished indexing and is ready to be searched.
  • A video indexing task has failed.

Use Webhooks to receive notifications

To receive event notifications for events in your application, use the steps in this section:

  1. Create an HTTP endpoint in your application. The platform sends notifications to your endpoint as POST requests with a JSON payload. For details about the schema, see the Notification schema section.
  2. Register your webhook. Once you've created an HTTP endpoint in your application, you must go to the Dashboard page and register your webhook in the Settings > Webhooks section. For instructions, see the Register a webhook section.
  3. Handle requests. Ensure that your application meets all the requirements for processing notifications.
