Let's get into the hard stuff, the settings for developers.
For a developer, sending a notification via Hook.Notifier is very simple. It is, as the name suggests, a simple call to a webhook. Let's take the time to examine and understand this call.
Your identifiers
When you register to Hook.Notifier, you will find your identifiers in your account. These keys take the shape of two parameters:
Identifier: %_YOUR_IDENTIFIER_%
Key: %_YOUR_KEY_%
These parameters are and must remain secret, they may however be leaked during experiments. No need to worry, you can regenerate them in your account.
Your hook, url to send notifications
To send a notification, all you have to do is make an http call to our service. You have the choice GET
or POST
, but we recommend POST
to be able to inject extra data inside your notifications. You will find your pre-composed url in your dashboard, here it is:
Hook: https://hooknotifier.com/%_YOUR_IDENTIFIER_%/%_YOUR_KEY_%
Of course, if you call this url like this, our server will return an error because several parameters are mandatory.
