Summary

Convoy has unveiled two new features, On-The-Fly events and Meta events, designed to enhance the webhook experience by simplifying integration and offering operational insights. On-The-Fly events streamline the process by allowing endpoint information to be specified in a single API call alongside the event payload, automatically creating or updating endpoints and subscriptions, which is particularly beneficial in dynamic environments. Meta events provide notifications for specific activities within a Convoy project, allowing users to subscribe to these events and integrate them into their internal systems for a seamless experience. These features are optional and can be configured under Project settings to receive notifications via a provided webhook URL. Convoy plans to expand these functionalities based on user feedback, including enabling delivery via additional channels like Pub/Sub platforms.
