Even though the diagram you created was basic, it helped me a lot. From now on when I think of webhooks I’ll think of that diagram. Thanks man!

Can you use web hooks to auto populate a form in a totally different website?

For example, user fills a form in Kajabi, and gets redirected to an eventbrite page, and their contact details (name, email, phone) are autofilled by the web hook into the contact form on Eventbrite so that the user can just proceed to the next step without have to re-type their details?

*QUESTION* How do I get a result from a PAYMENT process ( like STRIPE or PAYPAL ) to Trigger an Event or Function in MY website ?

I am building a Business Website where in steps ( 1 ) a Customer ( anyone this is not a Subscription nor membership site ) comes to my web site Fills out a Form for DATA SUBMISSION into the Database. ( 2 ) Once the DATA Form is filled out they press NEXT button ( 3 ) they are taken to a 3rd party PAYMENT page where they fill out a payment form and then press SUBMIT ( 4 ) once the SUBMIT button is pressed payment is process ( 5 ) ONLY AFTER PAYMENT IS APPROVED THEN I want the Data to be submitted into the data base.

*QUESTION* Is STEP # 5 completed with JS or some other language ? **HOW do I complete the process where AFTER PAYMENT IS ACCEPTED from a 3rd party payment processor ( like STRIP or PAYPAL ) THEN the data from the Already filled out data form is submitted into the data base ??** IS A WEBHOOK required to make this possible ? (if so how would one code that ) Is GET, Fetch, or some third party server required ??

Great video. Would it be possible if a user fills in a form on my website once they press the call to action/submit button it will send them to the payment URL but also send the information they filled out on the form to a CRM and possibly also trigger a sms to the users mobile notifying them of a successful registration.

IS A WEBHOOK required to make this possible ? or a GET function or what and how would one set that up ???

[PauloOrquillo]

can you secure the webhook url with sort of authentication?

Can webhook be served on the same server of the main app?

My app runs on Heroku. It’s a Node app.
