Webhooks

What is a Kanal webhook??

A Kanal webhook enables you to automatically receive a notification each time a new message is received. These notifications can be sent to different services or applications.

Data formats

When a new message is received, Kanal sends a POST request to your webhook with the following data in JSON format:

{
  "title": "Nouveau message sur Kanal",
  "body": "{{name}} vient de vous envoyer un nouveau message"
}

• Keep your webhook URL private

• Use HTTPS for secure transmission

• Avoid sharing logs containing webhook URLs

• Change your webhook URLs regularly for greater security

Troubleshooting If you don't receive notifications :

1. Check that the webhook URL has been copied correctly

2. Check that the webhook service is active

3. Check your integration platform logs
