Setting up the Webhook

What is a Webhook?

A webhook is an HTTP-based callback function that allows lightweight, event-driven communication between 2 application programming interfaces (APIs). Webhooks are used by a wide variety of web apps to receive small amounts of data from other apps, and with this, the plugin is now able to fetch important data to be displayed within the order.
