How to Set Up Webhooks for Event Actions

Written by Jerica

Use outgoing webhooks when you want HeySummit to send event-action data to another system, such as your own app, CRM, automation tool, or reporting workflow.

What a webhook does

A webhook sends data out of HeySummit when a selected action happens. Instead of another system repeatedly checking HeySummit for updates, HeySummit creates a POST request to the URL you configure.

Create a webhook

  1. Go to Event Setup > Webhooks in your event dashboard.

  2. Select Add Webhook.

  3. Choose the action that should trigger the webhook.

  4. Enter the destination URL that should receive the POST request.

  5. Leave Active? enabled if the webhook should start sending requests.

  6. Select Save.

The destination URL must be able to receive HTTPS POST requests and should return a 200 status code when it receives the payload successfully.

Available actions

You can create webhooks for these event actions:

  • Attendee registration started: sent when an attendee enters the registration flow.

  • Talk added to attendee schedule: sent when a talk is added to an attendee's schedule.

  • Checkout complete: sent when an attendee completes checkout.

  • Speaker added to event: sent when a new speaker is added to the event.

You can create more than one webhook, so different actions can go to different systems, or the same action can be sent to more than one destination.

Example payloads

Talk added to attendee schedule
