Webhooks

Webhooks allow DVS Online to integrate with additional applications by notifying them when a verification event has completed.

1. Creating a New Webhook

Create a webhook in the DVS Online Web Portal here

SC1

Enter the URL that the Webhook request should target when the validation event occurs. You will be able to add custom headers that will be sent along with verification data to authenticate the request being made.

SC1

Note

URL must be valid and the application must accept POST requests

You should immediately see the newly created webhook in the list.

SC1

2. Creating request

Create a new verification request by sending an SMS message to an end user.

3. Receiving data

When the verification process on the DVS server is complete all registered and enabled Webhooks will receive an HTTP POST request containing the verification data in the body of that request.

Note

We have a retry policy set to 10 retries before considering a webhook endpoint unreachable.

Request example:

[POST] https://my.webhook.com/url
