Introducing Webhooks for Events: Automate Your Workflow
We are excited to announce a new tool, an important part of our commitment to build a better version of Oveit. A version that helps connect events to visitors, apps to other apps and event planners to the latest tech trends without too much hassle.
The Event Planner’s new tech tool – the webhook for events
Imagine if, at your next big event, every ticket sale, every new registration, could automatically ripple through your entire system, updating databases, pinging your marketing tools, and keeping every team member in the loop. That’s now the reality with Oveit’s new Webhooks!
Webhooks are like the diligent backstage crew at your event. They work silently but effectively, ensuring that the spotlight is always where it needs to be and everything runs smooth. For event planners and marketers, this means:
- Real-time updates: The moment an attendee clicks ‘buy’, your entire system knows. Your sales data, your attendee lists, your CRM – they all get the memo instantly.
- Automated workflows: Say goodbye to manual data entry. Webhooks are your gateway to automation. An attendee registers, and voilà, their details are rapidly placed in your CRM, and a personalized welcome email is on its way.
- Reliable delivery: Even if some of your apps take a coffee break, Oveit’s Webhooks will patiently retry for up to two days, making sure no data gets lost out there in the cyberspace.
- Security first: With robust security practices, like unique signatures for each event, you can rest assured that the data you receive is as genuine as the smile of a satisfied attendee.
Developers, start your engines
Developers, get ready to flex those coding muscles because Oveit’s Webhooks are here to power up your apps. With this feature, you can build on top of the Oveit ecosystem, creating custom event and experience apps that are as unique as your coding mad skills. Here’s why you’ll love them:
- Easy integration: Hook your app up with Oveit, and watch it respond in real-time to event activities. Your creativity is the limit when it comes to what you can do with all that data coming in.
- Custom-tailored data streams: You call the shots on what data you need. Filter out the noise by selecting only the event types that matter to your app, keeping it lean.
- Rock-solid security: Build with confidence knowing that the data is verified with the digital equivalent of a secret handshake. Each webhook comes with a signature that guarantees it’s the real deal.
