Each item of webhooks is a Webhook:
Errors
Error bodies use the error envelope.
Example
curl "https://api.machinemail.dev/v0/webhooks" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $MACHINEMAIL_API_KEY"
Create Webhook
POST /v0/webhooks
The response includes secret (whsec_...), the key of the X-MachineMail-Signature HMAC. See the webhooks section of this document for the request MachineMail sends for each event type.
Under /v0/pods/{pod_id} or /v0/inboxes/{inbox_id}, or with a pod- or inbox-scoped credential, the webhook belongs to that pod or inbox (pod_id, inbox_id) and never receives events outside it.
A webhook delivers no event its creator could not read: each listed event type needs its read permission (message.* needs message_read, inbox.* inbox_read, domain.* domain_read, draft.* draft_read, webhook.test webhook_read), else 403. An empty event_types from a credential without all of them is stored as the types it may read (403 when there are none).
Custom request headers in headers are sent with every delivery (for example Authorization: Bearer <token> for an endpoint that requires it). Their values are write-only: responses list only header_names.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer <api key> or the dashboard mm_session cookie. Permission: webhook_create.
Request body
Content type: application/json.
Response
200 A webhook with this client_id already exists; it is returned unchanged. (application/json)
201 Created (application/json)

Update Webhook
PATCH /v0/webhooks/{webhook_id}
Fields you omit are unchanged. Webhooks are never disabled automatically after failed deliveries; enabled: false is the only way to disable one. New event_types follow the same permission rule as POST /v0/webhooks, and changing url needs the read permission of every event type the webhook delivers (403 otherwise).
headers replaces the custom delivery headers in full, null or {} removes them, and omitting it keeps them. While a webhook has custom headers, changing url to another origin (scheme, host or port) needs headers in the same request (400 otherwise), so header values never follow the webhook to a new server unless you send them again.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer <api key> or the dashboard mm_session cookie. Permission: webhook_update.
