The Webhook UI in Egnyte Collaborate provides a centralized, user-friendly interface for customers to create, manage, and check webhooks without relying on APIs or backend configurations.
Webhooks enable real-time event-driven integrations by allowing external systems to receive notifications whenever specific actions occur within Egnyte (for example; file uploads, deletions, creation, and more).
With the Webhook UI, admins can:
- Easily configure webhooks through a guided interface
- Select and subscribe to specific event types
- Manage webhook lifecycle (create, update, delete)
- Improve integration speed without engineering dependency
This UI removes the complexity of manual API-based setup and empowers both technical and semi-technical users to integrate Egnyte with external systems efficiently.
