A webhook is a means of notifying a third-party application of the occurrence of an event with some relevant information. In the Dwolla API, webhooks are currently triggered by the following resources:
Each webhook sent by the Dwolla API contains an Event
with _links
to: the associated resource, account associated with the event, and the customer associated with the event (if applicable). It is important to note that a single API request can trigger multiple webhooks to be fired, e.g. initiating a transfer from an Account to Customer can create the events transfer_created
and customer_transfer_created
.
