A webhook is a network communication initiated by Gigastore to your backend. It is used to keep your backend up-to-date when information changes at Gigastore.
Use our webhooks to get updates from your users on Gigastore, such as a user's country change, eSIM status, or when a user's balance runs low.
Instead of polling our API for information, updates are pushed to your server, and you can inform your users about these updates through push notifications or emails.
Gigastore needs to know the endpoints to send updates to your backend. A separate endpoint is needed for each update (country change, balance alerts). You can configure the endpoint URLs in the Gigastore portal.
After adding the URLs in the portal, you can trigger the eSIM status webhook by installing or de-installing an eSIM from your Gigastore account from a device. After a few seconds, the webhook will be triggered, and information about the status update will be sent to your server.
To test webhooks, we recommend using a site such as https://webhook.site.
