Send data to your server using Webhooks

You can send new order details from your StoreLink e-commerce website, directly to your server or another app using Webhooks. Whenever a customer places an order, StoreLink will automatically send the order data via webhook to the server, you have setup.

Note

Webhooks are a little technical. If you are not familiar with servers or APIs, please ask a developer or someone in your team for assistance.

What is a Webhook?

In general terms, a Webhook is simply a notification sent over the web, which is triggered automatically whenever a specific event occurs.

For StoreLink, when a new order is placed an event is triggered. As soon as this happens,

StoreLink sends the order details to the Webhook URL that you have provided. The webhook is always sent as an HTTP request.

Setting Up

Setting up a webhook is simple:

• You need an API endpoint on your server or third-party app that can accept POST requests with JSON data.

• Simply paste the Webhook URL and StoreLink will send new order details to it automatically.

In your StoreLink dashboard, go to Settings → Integrations you will find the Webhooks option. Click on Connect.

This will open the Add Webhook screen. Let’s see what each field means.

1. Webhook URL

Enter the Webhook URL that points to your API end point. This is where StoreLink should send the order details.

Example: https://yourdomain.com/webhooks/orders

2. Headers (optional)

Headers are extra information sent with the request. They are often used for security or authorization.

Example:

• Key: Authorization

• Value: Bearer YOUR_SECRET_KEY

3. Additional Fields (optional)

You can add extra data that should be included in every request.

Example:

• Key: source

• Value: StoreLink

Steps to Proceed

Fill in the webhook details (URL, headers, or fields if needed). Double check your keys to make sure there are no errors.

Click on Add Webhook to complete.

Test your Webhook

Open the 3-dot menu → select Send test to check if the request reaches your server.

Note

To test easily, you can also use free tools like Webhook.site or Intercept.rest to see if StoreLink is sending the data.

If the test works, congrats! Your webhook is now active.

From now on, every time a customer places an order, StoreLink will send the order details to your chosen URL.
