Creating a repository webhook

You can create a webhook to subscribe to events that occur in a specific repository. You must be a repository owner or have admin access in the repository to create webhooks in that repository.

You can use the {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} web interface or the REST API to create a repository webhook. For more information about using the REST API to create a repository webhook, see "AUTOTITLE."

{% data reusables.repositories.navigate-to-repo %} {% data reusables.repositories.sidebar-settings %} {% data reusables.webhooks.sidebar_webhooks %} {% data reusables.webhooks.add_webhook_button %}

1. Under "Payload URL", type the URL where you'd like to receive payloads. {% data reusables.webhooks.content_type_and_secret %}
2. Under "Which events would you like to trigger this webhook?", select the webhook events that you want to receive. You should only subscribe to the webhook events that you need.
3. If you chose Let me select individual events, select the events that you want to trigger the webhook.
4. To make the webhook active immediately after adding the configuration, select Active. {% data reusables.webhooks.add_webhook_button %}

After you create a new webhook, {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} will send you a simple ping event to let you know you've set up the webhook correctly. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE."
