Webhook configuration

Edit online

Webhooks allow your application to receive real‑time notifications when events occur in your IBM Digital Asset Haven organization.

Instead of polling the API to check the status of transactions or policies, you can configure IBM Digital Asset Haven to send an HTTP POST request to your endpoint as soon as an event is generated. This event‑driven approach improves efficiency and enables you to build responsive, automated workflows. For example, you can use webhooks to:

Receive notifications for the entire transaction lifecycle: created, signed, broadcasted, confirmed, or failed.
Trigger internal alerts when a policy requires approval.
Update customer records when a payment is confirmed on chain.

All webhook requests are signed so that you can verify that they originate from IBM Digital Asset Haven. This guide explains how to configure, secure, and subscribe to webhook events.
