The Hook object

Description

A webhook is a technical approach that allows Mangopay to submit a notification to other applications whenever a specific event occurs.

The Hook object allows you to receive notifications, to a URL you define, that are triggered by a specific event type. You can set up only one URL for each event type.

Best practice – Idempotent hook processing

The retry feature (i.e., new notification if your app was unreachable) can set the hook to INVALID. We strongly recommend you make your event processing idempotent to avoid receiving duplicate notifications for the same events.
