Hello. I'll publish video about EspoCRM webhooks.
Basically you can use webhooks to send some information to other services/applications. For example if you have booking external application, you can use webhooks in EspoCRM to send details of issued invoice to booking app.

Thank you for the answer, I understood the concept but I can't understand how the target app receives the data, how to read it in the target app.

1) I have configured the api user
2) I created the webhooks that points to the address http://www.prova.it/web.php (example domain)
which contains

<?php

$myfile = fopen("newfile.txt", "w") or die("Unable to open file!");
$txt = '<pre>' . print_r(get_defined_vars(), true) . '</pre>';
fwrite($myfile, $txt);
fclose($myfile);

?>

but it does not write any files

Here's a link with an actual code example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ave-them-in-db

I wrote this script to save all webhooks to log file. Just remember about creating folder /logs
