Webhooks
A webhook is a way for one app to send real-time information automatically to another app as soon as something happens, without the second app needing to ask for it.

How Webhooks Work with Productivity Tools
1. Real-Time Notifications
Webhooks let tools immediately notify other apps when an event occurs. For example:
- When you complete a task in Asana, a webhook can instantly send that update to Slack to inform your team.
- When a new form is submitted in Google Forms, a webhook can push the data directly into a project management tool like Trello.
2. Triggering Automated Actions
Webhooks trigger workflows based on specific events:
- When a new email arrives in Gmail, a webhook can start a process that creates a new task in Todoist.
- When a meeting is scheduled in Microsoft Teams, a webhook can notify your calendar app or update a shared spreadsheet.
3. Efficient Data Flow
Instead of constantly checking (polling) for updates, webhooks push updates as they happen, reducing delays and saving resources.
4. Examples of Webhook Usage
- Slack: Notify other apps when messages are posted
- Trello: Alert when cards are created, updated, or moved
- GitHub: Notify build tools or project management apps on code changes
- Google Forms: Send form responses immediately to other apps
Why This Matters
Webhooks create instant communication between your productivity tools, making sure information flows smoothly and actions happen right away without waiting or manual checking.
In summary, webhooks let productivity tools send automatic real-time alerts to each other when things happen, helping you keep your workflow up-to-date and responsive without delays.
