A webhook is a request the phone system sends to an address of yours the moment something happens. With Robottino webhooks your CRM, back office or automation tool knows straight away that a call came in, an operator answered, a caller left a score or asked to be called back. Nobody has to check by hand.
You choose the events, from 27 in seven groups: calls, queues, operators, IVR answerer, feedback, callback and internal chat. You can narrow them to some queues, operators, numbers or IVR menus, and send either the full event or only the fields your system needs, named the way you want.
Every delivery is signed, so your system can check it really comes from the phone system. If your address does not answer, the delivery is retried several times; the Deliveries tab shows the request and response of every attempt, and one click resends an event.
The other way round there is the public API: with an API key your software reads and creates leads and lists, searches and updates phonebook contacts, starts or pauses campaigns, reads the call history and starts a click-to-call from an operator’s phone.
