How We Added Generic Webhooks to SendRec

SendRec already had Slack notifications. But Slack is one channel. What if you want to trigger an n8n workflow when someone views your video? Or POST to your CRM when a viewer clicks your call-to-action? Or pipe every event into a custom dashboard? You need generic webhooks — a single URL that receives every event as a JSON POST. What we built Every user can configure a webhook URL in Settings. When something happens to their videos, SendRec POSTs a JSON payload to that URL: { "event" : "video.viewed" , "timestamp" : "2026-02-21T14:30:00Z" , "data" : { "videoId" : "abc-123" , "title" : "Product Demo" , "watchUrl" : "https://app.sendrec.eu/watch/xyz" , "viewCount" : 5 , "viewerHash" : "sha256..." } } Seven event types cover the full video lifecycle: video.created , video.ready , video.deleted , video.viewed , video.comment , video.milestone , and video.cta_click . Each request includes an X-Webhook-Signature header so the receiver can verify the payload hasn't been tampered with. Signin
