Webhooks

Zenovay uses webhooks internally for payment processing and subscription management. This page explains how webhooks work in Zenovay and how to build integrations using the External API.

How Zenovay Uses Webhooks

Zenovay processes inbound webhooks from payment providers and monitoring services. These are internal system webhooks that handle subscription billing and health checks.

Inbound Webhook Sources

Building Integrations

While Zenovay does not currently offer user-configurable outbound webhooks, you can build integrations using the External API.

Polling with the External API

Use the External API to periodically fetch analytics data:

const API_KEY = process.env.ZENOVAY_API_KEY;
const WEBSITE_ID = process.env.ZENOVAY_WEBSITE_ID;

async function checkAnalytics() {
const response = await fetch(
  `https://api.zenovay.com/api/external/v1/analytics/${WEBSITE_ID}?timeRange=24h`,
  {
    headers: { 'X-API-Key': API_KEY }
  }
);

const data = await response.json();

// Process the data
if (data.totalVisitors > threshold) {
  await sendNotification(data);
}
}

// Poll every 5 minutes
setInterval(checkAnalytics, 5 * 60 * 1000);

Live Visitor Count

The public live endpoint does not require an API key and can be polled more frequently:

async function getLiveVisitors(trackingCode) {
const response = await fetch(
  `https://api.zenovay.com/live/${trackingCode}`
);
return await response.json();
}

Slack Notification Example

Build a scheduled analytics report that posts to Slack:

async function sendDailyReport() {
const response = await fetch(
  `https://api.zenovay.com/api/external/v1/analytics/${WEBSITE_ID}?timeRange=24h`,
  {
    headers: { 'X-API-Key': API_KEY }
  }
);

const data = await response.json();

await fetch(SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL, {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    text: `Daily Report: ${data.totalVisitors} visitors, ${data.totalPageViews} page views`
  })
});
}

Rate Limits for Integrations

When building polling integrations, respect the External API rate limits:

Best Practices

• Cache API responses locally to reduce request frequency
• Use appropriate polling intervals (5 minutes minimum recommended)
• Monitor the X-RateLimit-Remaining header to avoid hitting limits
• Implement exponential backoff if you receive 429 responses
