Summary

The text outlines the use of webhooks for communication between applications, specifically detailing how Convoy can be implemented to send webhook events from a Laravel-based Todo API to clients. Webhooks are described as messages sent after certain operations, such as creating, updating, or deleting a Todo item, which then trigger the corresponding webhook events. The guide walks through setting up a Laravel project, configuring endpoints, and sending webhook events using Convoy, emphasizing the importance of tailoring endpoints to specific users or businesses in production environments. The process includes creating endpoints, generating webhook events for Todo operations, and managing these events via a delivery dashboard, with a recommendation to publish webhooks from workers in production rather than directly from controllers.
