Relay: Inputs



Inputs are the end points that external systems will post to. When you wish to proxy requests through our system, you will need to create at least one input so the external systems have an endpoint to send requests to.

A general rule of thumb is that you should have one input per service that is sending data to webhooks.io. This granularity allows for more customization when sending the requests to the destinations.
