Project webhooks let your organization send project-event notifications to external automation tools. This page explains how to prepare a project for webhook configuration and how to safely create and manage endpoints when the Webhooks controls are available in your Atloria environment.
Overview
Webhooks are used when an event in a project needs to trigger work outside Atloria. For example, your team may use a webhook to notify an automation platform, create a task in another system, start a deployment workflow, or update an internal reporting process.
Webhook configuration is typically performed for an individual project rather than for all projects at once. Before you begin, identify the project that should send events and confirm which external system will receive them. You should also decide which project events are meaningful for the receiving workflow so that it does not run unnecessarily.
Atloria provides access to your project workspace through the Projects area. From there, you can search for and open the project that requires integration. The available evidence for this release confirms project navigation controls, but it does not confirm the labels, fields, or buttons used on the project Webhooks screen. Use the instructions below to reach the correct project and follow your organization’s approved Webhooks configuration process if the Webhooks option is present.

Prerequisites
Before configuring a webhook, make sure you have the following:
- Access to the Projects area in Atloria.
- Permission to administer the target project and its integrations.
- An existing project to configure.
- The destination URL supplied by the external service or automation workflow.
- Any authentication value, shared secret, token, or signing requirement required by the destination service.
- A list of the project events that should trigger the webhook.
- A contact who can verify deliveries in the external receiving system.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Select Projects to open the list of projects available to you.
-
Enter the project name in Search projects... to find the project you want to configure.
-
Open the target project from the search results.
-
Confirm that you are working in the intended project before changing any integration settings.
-
Open the project’s integration or webhook configuration option if your project navigation displays one.
-
Select the option to create a new webhook endpoint if an existing endpoint is not already configured.
-
Enter the destination address in the endpoint URL field displayed by your Webhooks screen.
-
Enter the authentication or signing information required by the external service in the applicable security field.
-
Select the project events that should notify the endpoint.
-
Save or create the webhook using the confirmation button displayed on the Webhooks screen.
-
Review the newly created endpoint in the project’s webhook list to confirm that its destination and selected events are correct.
-
Send a test event if your Webhooks screen provides a test or delivery action.
-
Verify in the external system that the test notification was received and processed successfully.

Tips and Best Practices
Use a dedicated endpoint for each external workflow when possible. Separate endpoints make it easier to identify which integration received a notification and reduce the impact of changes to a single workflow.
Select only the events required by the receiving system. Sending every available event can create unnecessary traffic, duplicate work, and confusing automation results. Start with the smallest event set that supports the workflow, then expand it only after testing.
Treat webhook URLs and secrets as sensitive integration credentials. Share them only with authorized administrators, and update the destination configuration promptly if a secret is exposed or an external workflow is retired.
Use a stable, production-ready destination URL. Avoid configuring a personal workstation, temporary testing address, or endpoint that may change without notice. If you need to test, use a dedicated test endpoint and clearly distinguish it from the production endpoint.
Review existing endpoints before creating another one. Duplicate webhooks can cause the same external automation to run multiple times for one project event.
Use the project search capability when you manage many projects. The Search projects... field helps you reach the correct project without making changes to a similarly named project.

Troubleshooting
You cannot find the target project
Select Projects, then use Search projects... with the project’s full or partial name. If the project still does not appear, confirm that you have been granted access to it. You can also return to the project list by selecting ← Back to Projects where that action is available.
You do not see a Webhooks or integration option in the project
Webhook controls may be limited by your role, organization configuration, or the version of Atloria available to your team. Confirm that you have project-administrator permissions and contact your Atloria administrator if the option is unavailable.
The external system does not receive the webhook
First, verify that the endpoint URL is correct and reachable from the external service. Then confirm that the selected event actually occurred in the project and that any required authentication or signing value matches the receiving system’s configuration. If a test action is available, use it to isolate endpoint connectivity from normal project-event processing.
