Specifying a callback URL

The Web Hook transport allows you to enable the HTTP(s) server capabilities (Web Hook) of the probe and to specify a callback URL to which a target server or an HTTP client can POST notifications.

Use the webhookURI property in the restWebhookTransport.properties file to specify a callback URL for the client to POST notifications.

The webhookURI property can specify the scheme (HTTP or HTTPS), port number, and path of the callback URL, for example:

webhookURI=/probe/webhook

or

webhookURI=http://hostname:80/probe/webhook

If you leave the webhookURI property blank, the probe will randomly generate a URL.

If you want to disable the Web Hook capabilities of the probe and only the use probe as an HTTP client, set the webhookURI property to OFF.
