Event type: “note.created”
The “note.created” webhook event is triggered whenever there is a note created against a Stop, Shipment or a Trip in the Locate2u system. Notes are primarily job descriptions, delivery instructions and documents (e.g. photo or docs) for Proof of delivery or normal stop/shipment documents. Notes can be added from multiple sources within the system, such as the app portal, mobile apps, or through the API. Developers integrating with Locate2u can subscribe to this webhook event and handle these status changes on their URL/website. Here’s how you subscribe to the “note.created” webhook:
- Subscribe to the “note.created” event by making a POST call to the api/v1/webhooks endpoint with two parameters : “eventType” and “url”.
Example Request Body
The request body should be in raw format and should contain below fields:
eventType
(string, required): The type of event for the webhook. Here we are subscribing to note.created webhook.url
(string, required): The URL where the webhook payload will be sent.
{
"eventType": "note.created",
"url": "https://hookb.in/"
}
Once subscribed to the “note.created” event, the Locate2u webhook will send a payload with details of the event whenever there is a new note is added, allowing you to perform actions on your end accordingly. See the response section for an example payload sent by the webhook. Below, you will find example requests on how to subscribe to the “note.created” event.
