Webhooks (real-time events from your publishing pipeline)
Hi there,
Polling APIs is boring. And also inefficient.
Until now, if you wanted to know what happened to a post — whether it was published, failed, or retried — you had to ask the API again. And again. And again.
Now Postproxy can simply tell you when something happens.
We’ve added webhooks so your system can receive real-time events from your publishing pipeline.
You can subscribe to events like:
-
post.processed -
platform_post.published -
platform_post.failed -
platform_post.failed_waiting_for_retry -
platform_post.insights -
profile.connected/profile.disconnected -
media.failed
This makes it much easier to build event-driven workflows around publishing.
For example:
-
Trigger analytics pipelines when a post goes live
-
Update dashboards when a platform confirms publishing
-
Retry logic or alerts when something fails
-
Sync publishing events into your internal systems
-
Drive automation in tools like n8n or your own backend
Instead of periodically checking /api/posts, you just receive events when something actually happens.
You can configure webhooks directly in the app, or through the API.
If you want to try it, start here:
https://postproxy.dev/reference/webhooks/
And if you’re building automation pipelines or AI-driven systems on top of Postproxy, webhooks usually end up becoming the backbone of the whole setup.
As always - if there’s an event you’d like to see that isn’t there yet, tell us.
Best,
Dmitry
