You can now replay missed messages from the previous two weeks with this update to our webhooksWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. service.

What's new?​

Our webhooksWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. service caches all generated events even if no consumers have been configured. With this latest update to the service, you can request Codat to resend all events missed in the previous two weeks. You can do so when you start using the webhooksWebhook An automated notification sent from Codat to your application when specific events occur, such as when data syncs complete or connections change status. service, on a consumer-by-consumer basis.
