Webhooks
[Webhooks}(https://api.mambo.io/#advanced/webhooks) enable real-time integrations by sending HTTP notifications when specific events occur in Mambo. These automated notifications allow you to build responsive integrations that can update user interfaces, trigger notifications, or process data as soon as events happen.
