Webhooks
========

A webhook enables YumiSign to push real-time notifications to your app.
YumiSign uses HTTPS to send these notifications to your app as a JSON payload.
You can then use these notifications to execute actions in your backend systems.

.. tip::

    YumiSign uses webhooks to notify your application when an event happens in your workflows.
    Webhooks are particularly useful for asynchronous events like when a document is signed
    and you need to update it's status on your system or to fetch the signed document.
