Improved

New webhook subscription management in the Developer Portal

You can now create and manage your webhook subscriptions directly in the Developer Portal! This is a new self-serve tool available for each Demo and Production application. The tool will allow you to create, verify, edit, and delete webhook subscriptions. It will provide more insight into the events your subscription is receiving. Each subscription will have a details page with a searchable Event activity table. This table will show the last n events that your subscription received, and will allow you to search those events for specific subscription types. Review our webhooks guide for more info.
