Flourish Webhooks
Enabling Webhooks
What are Webhooks?
Webhooks are automated messages sent from Flourish when an action/trigger happens. They have a message and are sent to a unique URL. Webhooks are almost always faster than polling, and they require less work to set up on your end. For example, if an order updates in Flourish, it can trigger a webhook and send the order to your CRM or Accounting platform.
Flourish supports the following webhooks:
Webhook | Notes |
Strains | Create, Update |
Items | Create, Update |
Outbound Order | Create, Update Flourish auto saves each order line as the user clicks out of it. This triggers an update on the webhook for real-time sync, which will result in Flourish sending numerous events. If you want to minimize the number of updates from this, make sure you configure that on the receiving end. |
Retail Order | Create, Update |
Retail Customer | Create, Update |
Inbound Purchase Order | Create, Update |
Inventory | Triggered when a package is created, consumed, adjusted, received, or shipped |
Inventory Summary | This sends the aggregated quantities by SKU for each item. |
