Behavior

  • Important for providers like IFTTT, Zapier and custom relays.
  • Should eventually expose retry history and endpoint health.
  • Best triggered by Eventor or backend flows instead of pretending to be a direct hardware control.

Firmware contract

Best driven by Eventor or server-side triggers rather than direct board writes.

On the app side this widget snaps to the 8-column square grid and uses none resizing. Its raw type is WEBHOOK and the matching icon token in the app is link.

Pin support: No visible pin. This is an outbound integration endpoint.

Transmission: HTTP/webhook event delivery triggered by rules or dashboard actions.
