What is a Webhook?
Webhooks are an essential building block in our modern cloud ecosystem. They are used to feed real-time data from one app into another by responding to a triggered event and are used for all kinds of notification and automation systems.
What is REST?
The REST acronym is defined as a “REpresentational State Transfer” and is designed to take advantage of existing HTTP protocols when used for Web APIs. It is very flexible in that it is not tied to resources or methods and has the ability to handle different calls and data formats. Because REST API is not constrained to an XML format like SOAP, it can return multiple other formats depending on what is needed. If a service adheres to this style, it is considered a “RESTful” application. REST allows components to access and manage functions within another application.
