Webhooks Integration
Webhooks allow you to send the events generated via the RudderStack SDK to your own backend. It is useful in cases where you want to apply some custom logic on the event payload before sending it to your preferred destination platforms. Once webhooks are enabled as a destination in your dashboard, RudderStack forwards the SDK events to your configured webhook endpoint.

About Webhooks
Simply put, Webhooks are HTTP callbacks that are defined by the user. It lets your application know whenever an event happens in real-time. Webhooks work on a unique concept called event reaction. Instead of a client-side application polling a server-side app, a webhook – essentially a URL endpoint – allows the server-side app to notify the client-side app whenever an event has occurred.
You can also set up your webhooks to verify that the payload requests are generated by an authenticated service, and not a third-party service pretending to be you. This way, you can protect the customer’s sensitive information.
If getting real-time data to your application is your end goal, using webhooks are a great way to ensure instant, reliable communication.
