Webhooks released

Over the weekend, we formally released our new Webhook system! The eagle-eyed of you may have noticed an early release of Webhooks as far back as 2 weeks ago, but now there are more events to which you can Subscribe.

From the Webhooks documentation:

Webhooks offer a way to quickly find out about changes to your Subscriptions that happen within Chargify. You can subscribe to events of interest, and we’ll post data to the URL you specify when one of those events occurs.

The events we currently offer are:

  • signup success/failure
  • renewal success/failure
  • payment success/failure
  • subscription state change

Webhooks provide much more information in their payload than our old Post-backs, and should make it even easier to integrate your app with Chargify. We think you’ll like them so much, that Webhooks will eventually totally replace the old Post-back system.

A final note: Webhooks are currently an “alpha” level feature and are subject to change. Please subscribe to this Changelog and/or our @chargify Twitter stream in order to follow our development. But please do move forward with implementing them – we value your feedback!
