[ Blog ](/blog/) * Categories # Getting Started[ΒΆ](#getting-started "Permanent link") Webhooks are configured per app. To create one, open **Settings β†’ Webhooks** in your app's sidebar in the [Console](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io/) and click **Create**. Each webhook has the following properties: * **Name** (required) β€” a human-readable name to identify the webhook. * **URL** (required) β€” the endpoint that receives the `POST` requests. * **Format** (required) β€” `Raw` for custom integrations, or a notification format ([Slack](/docs/cloud/integrations/slack/), [Discord](/docs/cloud/integrations/discord/), [Microsoft Teams](/docs/cloud/integrations/microsoft-teams/)). * **Events** (required) β€” one or more [events](/docs/cloud/webhooks/event-types/) that trigger the webhook. * **Signing Secret** (optional) β€” a secret used to [sign each request](/docs/cloud/webhooks/securing/) so the receiver can verify authenticity. Only available for the `Raw` format. Choosing a **format** is the main decision here: pick a notification format when you just want messages in a chat channel, or `Raw` when your own backend needs to react to the event β€” in which case you'll also want a signing secret to [verify each request](/docs/cloud/webhooks/securing/). Test before going live Use [webhook.cool](https://webhook.cool/) to generate a temporary URL and inspect real payloads before pointing the webhook at your production endpoint. Once created, trigger one of the subscribed [events](/docs/cloud/webhooks/event-types/) β€” for example, by starting a build β€” and confirm your endpoint receives the request. Every attempt is recorded in the [delivery log](/docs/cloud/webhooks/delivery-and-retries/), so you can see exactly what was sent and how your endpoint responded. ## Next steps[ΒΆ](#next-steps "Permanent link") * [Event Types](/docs/cloud/webhooks/event-types/) β€” the events you can subscribe to. * [Payload Structure](/docs/cloud/webhooks/payload-structure/) β€” the shape of the JSON your endpoint receives. * [Securing Webhooks](/docs/cloud/webhooks/securing/) β€” verify requests with a signing secret.
