Step 4: Set Up Bi-directional Webhooks
Stay informed about changes in your integrated services with real-time webhook notifications.
Understanding Bi-directional Webhooks
Bi-directional webhooks enable you to:
- Receive instant notifications when events occur in your integrated services
- Build custom automation workflows
- React to changes in real-time across your entire tech stack
When events are triggered, Unizo sends secure HTTP POST requests to your configured endpoints with all the relevant event data.

Configure webhooks through our streamlined process:
- In the Bi-directional section, click Create Bi-directional
- Domain Type: Select the appropriate domain for your webhook
- Callback URL: Enter your endpoint URL that will receive notifications
- Content Type: Specify the media type (e.g.,
application/json
) - Secret: Create a secure, unique string for request authentication
- API Key: Provide your unique identifier for server authentication
- Click Submit to activate your webhook configuration
Manual Webhook Configuration
Set up webhooks independently:
- Navigate to Setup Integrations → Bi-directional
- Click Create Bi-directional
- Fill in the required fields:
- Domain Type: Choose your target domain
- Callback URL: Your webhook endpoint
- Content Type: Data format (typically
application/json
) - Secret: Secure authentication string
- API Key: Your unique server identifier
- Click Submit to save your configuration
Testing Webhooks: We recommend testing your webhook endpoints with tools like ngrok for local development before deploying to production.
What's next? You're now ready to make API calls and start integrating with Unizo's unified APIs.
