We have been receiving requests from many of our merchants to provide a way to update their systems whenever a payment happen. We listened to the feedback and have launched webhook feature for the same.<\/p>\n

What is a webhook?<\/strong>
\nWebhook is a HTTP callback. The callback is done to a url specified while creating a webhook.
\nThe webhook callbacks are event driven i.e. a callback to a webhook will be done whenever the event associated with the webhook occurs.<\/p>\n

Example \u2013 <\/strong>
\nSuccessful Payment Webhook \u2013 The event associated with this webhook is Successful Payment. So whenever a successful payment happens, a callback to the webhook URL will be done.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

How does the PayU webhook work?<\/strong>
\nPayU will be sending the callback messages as HTTP POST requests to the URL specified.
\nCurrently, we are providing 2 types of webhook events \u2013<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. When a payment is successful<\/li>\n
  2. When a payment is failed<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So whenever a payment is successful\/fails for your merchant account, you can receive a callback to your server. In the callback message, all the payment details are shared, so you can update your server and process the order as per your business processes.<\/p>\n

    The callback request format can be viewed here – here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    How do I create a webhook?<\/b><\/p>\n

    \"how<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n
        \n
      1. To create a webhook, you will need to create a URL at your server which will be able to receive the callback message that will be sent.<\/li>\n
      2. Once you have created the url, you can go to your PayU merchant account -> Settings -> My Account ->Webhook<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \"webhook-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \n
            \n
          1. Click on Create New Webhook button<\/li>\n
          2. Select the event type for which you want webhook to be added<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            \"webhook-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Enter webhook URL (that you have created in 1). Note that you can\u2019t create a webhook with a url that is not working (receiving callback request)<\/li>\n
            2. Optionally, You can also provide a static authorization header & key so that your server identified that the callback message is sent from PayU server<\/li>\n
            3. Submit<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Upon submission, PayU server will send a dummy callback message to confirm whether the url provided is able to receive POST requests or not.<\/p>\n

              If your URL isn\u2019t accepting the dummy request sent, then you will be allowed to create that webhook.<\/p>\n

              If your url is able to receive the request and provides a http response code 200 OK, then the webhook will be successfully created.
              \n              \"webhook-3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

              Once your webhook is created then from the next time whenever the webhook event will occur, a callback to your webhook url will be sent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
