Built for the needs of modern teams

Focus on the events that matter with advanced filtering. These filters allow you to create customized triggers responsive to specific events (publish, delete, save, etc.), entities (entries, content types) or environments (master, sandbox). You can further refine the triggers by invoking logical operators (equals, includes), leveraging regular expressions or adding negations.
Webhook filters
Tap into the API ecosystem while combining best-of-breed services into one seamless application. Webhook calls can be transformed to use custom HTTP methods, `Content-Type` headers and payloads — as required by the target service. When customizing webhook payload, you can strip down default response to essential fields, add extra data and use placeholders to resolve dynamic values.
