Update Alert Webhook

Update Webhook

The Update Webhook endpoint allows customers to modify an existing webhook configuration, including its URL, secret, description, and enabled status. Since webhooks and alerts are now managed separately, you cannot modify alert rules through this endpoint.

Authentication

Include the following headers in your requests:

Access-Token: <your-access-token>

Permissions

Ensure your API user has a role with admin or edit-alert-webhook-endpoint permission.

Endpoint

• URL: https://api.genlogs.io/alerts/webhook/{webhook_id}
