Setting Up a Webhook
Navigate to Settings → Webhooks.
Click Add New Webhook
Fill in a name for your webhook (e.g. "Slack Alerts" or "Zapier") and the destination URL you'd like EmailGuard to send data to.
Choosing Your Events
Once you've entered your URL, select which events you want to subscribe to. You can use Toggle all events to enable everything at once, or pick individually based on what you need.
Each event has a Sample Payload link so you can preview exactly what data will be sent before going live.

Each event has a Sample Payload link so you can preview exactly what data will be sent before you go live.
Testing Your Webhook
Before saving, use the Send test webhook button to fire a test payload to your URL. Select any event from the dropdown, enter your destination URL, and click Send test event to confirm everything is working correctly.
You'll see the full JSON payload that EmailGuard sends for that event. Here's an example of what a received webhook looks like on the receiving end:
Every payload follows the same structure:
an event object describing what happened and which workspace it came from
a data object containing the full details of the resource that triggered it.
You're all set
Your webhook is live and ready to go. EmailGuard will handle the rest.
