Webhooks
Configuring the profile webhooks for 2-way sync
Overview
Use the Profile Webhook feature to enable seamless integration and synchronization of profile data between MangoApps and external third-party software or APIs. By utilizing webhooks triggered on events like user creation, profile updates, or user activation/deactivation, companies can ensure that critical user information remains consistent and up-to-date across different platforms. This capability streamlines data management processes, enhances interoperability between systems, and ultimately improves efficiency by automating data exchanges without manual intervention. Additionally, the ability to configure security settings, including OAuth-based authentication, ensures data integrity and confidentiality during these exchanges, meeting stringent security requirements for modern enterprise IT infrastructures.
