API Webhook
From Spiffy Stores Knowledge Base
Webhooks are a useful tool for apps that want to execute code after a specific event happens on a store, for example, after a customer creates a cart on the storefront, or a merchant creates a new product in their admin.
Instead of telling your app to make an API call every X number of minutes to check if a specific event has occurred on a store, you can register webhooks, which send an HTTP request from the store telling your app that the event has occurred. This uses far less API requests overall, allowing you to build more robust apps, and update your app instantly after a webhook is received.
Webhooks are scoped to the app they're registered to. This means that when a webhook is registered to an app, other apps can't view, modify, or delete it.
If you're not a developer, or you don't have access to any developer skills, don't despair! You might want to look at a service such as Zapier which offers a quick and simple way for you to connect your Spiffy Store to hundreds of other web applications and services.
API Webhooks should not be confused with our older, limited Notification Webhooks. The Notification Webhooks are designed to only provide a simple order notification service, whereas API Webhooks can be registered on a much wider range of events.

Anatomy of a Webhook
When an event occurs in a store that corresponds to a registered webhook, Spiffy Stores sends a webhook notification to the specified URL. The webhook contains a payload formatted as JSON, as well applicable HTTP headers. For example, the following headers are sent as part of the orders/create webhook.
X-Spiffy-Stores-ID: 0c1c9920-5c9c-012d-bd34-000c295ec56b X-Spiffy-Stores-Topic: orders/create X-Spiffy-HMAC-SHA256: XWmrwMey6OsLMeiZKwP4FppHH3cmAiiJJAweH5Jo4bM= X-Spiffy-Stores-Shop-Domain: mynewstore.spiffystores.com X-Spiffy-Stores-Order-Id: 12345 ...
Some of the returned HTTP headers can be useful for your app. For example, X-Spiffy-Stores-HMAC-SHA256 is used to authenticate webhooks, and X-Spiffy-Stores-Shop-Domain is useful for determining the store context.
List of Supported Webhook Topics
Event data can be stored as JSON or XML. Webhooks can be registered for the following events:
