Webhooks#
The webhook event handler delivers HTTP(S) requests to public endpoints. Webhooks contain lifecycle events and/or telemetry data which can be delivered to web applications, IoT platforms, API gateways or hyperscaler lambda functions.
Prerequisites#
- A user with access to the Coiote IoT Device Management platform and appropriate permissions
- A LwM2M device
Info
You can create up to 10 event handlers in your domain.
Create a webhook#
To create a new webhook event handler, select: Integrations > Data Integration Center.
Select Add event handler.
