Using Webhooks
Use Webhooks to register URLs for Compass to notify whenever sessions are completed in your account. Process field and session data with your own internal systems.
Technical Details for Developers
We send a POST request containing a JSON payload to a secure HTTPS URL of your choosing. See below for an example of the payload data structure.
Payload Properties
Property | Type | Definition |
---|---|---|
key | string | Unique identifier for the session |
started_at | ISO 8601 string | Date and time that the session began |
completed_at | ISO 8601 string | Date and time that the session completed |
workflow | object | The unique identifier and name of the workflow used during the session |
fields | array of objects | Details about each completed field during the session |
Example JSON payload

Supported Actions
Send Message
Sends a POST request to a secure URL of your choosing with information about a completed session.
1. Enable Webhooks
To get started, you must enable Webhooks in your Compass account. Navigate to Integrations and select Enable on the Webhooks integration.

2. Add an Action to your Workflow
Now you can add the Send Message action for Webhooks to your Workflows. If you aren’t familiar with adding Actions to Workflows, we highly recommend that you read the article Adding Actions to a Section.
Navigate to Workflows and choose a Workflow. If you haven’t created a Workflow, we recommend that you read the article, Creating a Workflow and then return to this article.
Select the Section that will use the Action and then select Add Action, as seen below.

Then follow the simple Setup Action process to add the Action. Once complete you’ll see the Webhooks Action added to the Section as seen below.

4. Use the Action in a Session
During a session, when you encounter a section of the workflow that includes a send message action, we’ll trigger it once the session is completed. No prompt will appear to fire Webhook actions as opposed to other integrations.
5. Reviewing Sent Actions
After you’ve completed the Session and fired the Actions, you will have access to a record of everything that happened during the Session.
If you aren’t familiar with the Session Record, we recommend you read the article, Reviewing a Completed Session Record.
From the Session Record, you can view the sent Actions and their details, as seen below.

Nice work! Now you know all about Webhooks and can use Compass to collect information and then process it with your internal systems.
