# Event Driven Webhook Notifications API

## What is a Webhook?

A Webhook is just a push notification from our system to yours.  For example, a **New Employee Webhook** lets you set up a push notification to your system each time a new employee is added.

## Why use a Webhook?

Webhooks allows easy integration from one application to another.  You run a tour company, and every time a customer pays on your website, you manually input their details into your membership management system.  This process quickly becomes tedious as the rate of new customers increase.

Using a webhook is one way to make processes like this automated.  

| **Website**                                | Webhook Data                                                                | Membership System   |
| ------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| **Event**:  customer books on your website | <p>Name: John Doe </p><p>Email: <john.doe@zaui.com></p><p>Order: $55.00</p> | Customer is entered |
