Setting Up Webhooks in TapGoods PRO

TapGoods PRO now supports webhooks, allowing the system to automatically send order status updates to external applications.

This feature enables real-time communication between TapGoods and other platforms.

What Is a Webhook?

A webhook is a way for TapGoods to automatically send information to another system when a specific event occurs, such as an order status changing.

For example:

When an order moves from "Quote" to "Reservation," TapGoods can immediately notify another system like your CRM, a spreadsheet, or an email service.

Webhooks vs. Open API

TapGoods supports both webhooks and an Open API, each serving a different purpose:

  • Open API – Other systems can request information from TapGoods on demand.

  • Webhook – TapGoods sends information automatically when an event happens.

In short:

  • Use the Open API when you want to pull data.

  • Use webhooks when you want TapGoods to push updates.

What Events Trigger a Webhook?

Currently, TapGoods webhooks are triggered when an order status changes.

Where to Set Up Your Webhook in TapGoods PRO

  1. Hover over Admin on the TapGoods PRO menu.

  2. Click WordPress Plugin.

  1. Scroll to the Webhook Settings section.
  2. Click Edit. 

  1. Enter your:

    • Webhook Live URL: This is the link (URL) where TapGoods will send order updates when Live Mode is turned on. It should point to the system or platform you're integrating with (like MAKE.com, n8n.io, or a custom endpoint).

    • Webhook Test URL: Use this if you want to test your webhook setup before going live. When Live Mode is off, TapGoods will send updates to this Test URL instead.

    • Webhook Secret: This is a shared secret used to verify that the webhook calls are really coming from TapGoods. If provided, TapGoods will include a hashed version of the secret as a Bearer token in the webhook header for added security.

  2. Toggle Live Mode on or off.
    • Off = sends test data to the Test URL
    • On = sends real data to the Live URL
  3. Click Submit to save your settings

Do I Need to Be a Developer?

No coding required! You can use no-code platforms like:

These tools allow you to build automations using drag-and-drop interfaces. You can connect TapGoods to other apps without writing a single line of code.
