Webhooks

Discover how to set up incoming and outgoing webhooks in AnyTrack to track events, automate conversions, and connect with thousands of apps via Zapier, Make, and more.

Webhooks are instant notifications sent by an application to a unique target URL. Generally, the target URL enables the server to process the notification content.

With AnyTrack, webhooks are used to send and receive data.

For example, incoming webhooks enable anytrack to receive data from Hubspot, Stripe, or any web application integrated with Zapier, and outgoing webhooks enable AnyTrack to send conversion data to Zapier, Make and any of their integrated web applications.

Server-Side Conversion Tracking

Webhooks are automated messages sent from apps when something happens. They have a messageβ€”or payloadβ€”and are sent to a unique URLβ€”essentially like an app's phone number or address.

Thanks to companies like Zapier and Make, what used to require special development skills can now be implemented by anyone with little or no prior coding knowledge.

Good to know:

Webhook providers enable you to create scenarios with preset formats and data structures. Because each server has a predefined structure to send and/or receive data, you can build the scenario and let it run in the background. While the data structure and format are identical for every notification, the content is dynamically updated according to the event being sent.

Why are webhooks so important to digital marketers?

Sometimes you need to send or receive data from and to applications that are not directly integrated into AnyTrack. In such cases, Webhooks can be used to send data from AnyTrack (outbound) or to send data to AnyTrack (inbound).

When you want to send data from AnyTrack to a third party application like Google Data Studio.

Use cases:

  • Send conversion data to Google Data Studio
  • Trigger automated email campaigns
  • Update CRM records with conversion data
  • Send data to business intelligence tools

Good to know:

Using AnyTrack inbound or outbound webhook you can connect your marketing and sales stack with AnyTrack to send and receive data with 10000s business apps.

The Anatomy of a Webhook

The Webhook URL

The webhook URL is provided by the receiving server. Here's an example from Make:

https://hook.integromat.com/j8s8l9y0odfxokmb9ino98jxxxxxxxxx

The Payload

The payload is the data sent alongside the webhook URL. It contains all the event information in JSON format, including:

  • Event details (name, time, value)
  • Attribution data
  • Customer information
  • Custom parameters

Zapier Webhook Setup

❗️

Note

If the webhook provider responds with an error, the webhook will be disabled.

To reactivate the Webhook, edit it and send a test event. This will reset the error counter and activate it.

FAQ and Troubleshooting

Why I don't see the option to add a new webhook?

If the role assigned to your user has restrictions or view-only permission, the option to add or edit a webhook won't be available. Please contact your account owner or manager to increase your access level.

Why am I am not receiving any events in my webhook?

If your webhook returned too many errors, anytrack automatically turns it off. To turn it on again, send a test and when validated save.

How do I troubleshoot webhook delivery issues?
  1. Check webhook status: Ensure your webhook is active in the AnyTrack dashboard
  2. Verify URL: Make sure the webhook URL is correct and accessible
  3. Test endpoint: Send a test event to verify the endpoint is responding
  4. Check logs: Review webhook delivery logs for error messages
  5. Validate payload: Ensure your endpoint can handle the JSON payload format
What events can trigger webhooks?

AnyTrack webhooks can be triggered by various events including:

  • Conversion events: Purchase, lead, signup
  • Attribution events: First touch, last touch
  • Custom events: Any custom event you've configured
  • E-commerce events: Add to cart, checkout initiated
