Create Webhook in KlickTipp – Send Contact Data
In this article, you’ll learn how to create a webhook in KlickTipp to automatically send contact data to your connected systems in real time.
What Is a Webhook in KlickTipp? A webhook is an HTTP callback that automatically sends data from one system to another when a specific event occurs. In KlickTipp, a webhook sends selected contact data to a URL as soon as a tag is applied—for example, to update an external database in real time with data from KlickTipp.
Note for existing customers: This feature was previously called "Outbound". If you used to create Outbound for your integrations, you can now find the same function under → Automation → Webhook.
Step-by-Step Instructions

Did You Know?

Webhooks that are triggered by campaign actions run immediately.
With a properly configured webhook, you can connect KlickTipp to your external systems in real time and route contact data exactly where you need it.
