New programmatic webhooks ensure you get updates in real-time while automatically reconnecting if your servers experience down-time.
Staying up to date with the latest email, calendar and contacts data just became easier today. Now, you can automatically detect if your webhook is down, and auto re-enable the webhook in seconds without ever logging in to the Nylas dashboard.
We’ve added support for PUT , POST, and DELETE on our webhooks endpoints, allowing you to create, delete, enable, or disable webhooks programmatically:
This is particularly helpful in cases where your servers experience extended downtime, causing your webhook to de-activate. Now, you can now programmatically detect and re-enable the webhook without your customers even noticing a disruption.
Let’s take a look at some examples; the first shows how to create a webhook that is triggered whenever a message is opened.
