Receive Incoming Webhook Data

Today I gonna share how can we receive data from webhook in PHP. It’s just a cinch but sometime feels really tricky.

Webhook: 

Webhook is very useful way of getting update from external system. It notify when something happened on webhook server side. Webhook client is for receiving  this update.

Receive Webhook Data:

Data from external source thrown on JSON format to receive in PHP follow below code snippets and use this file url as delivery url in webhook settings.

$json = file_get_contents(‘php://input’); //receiving json data
$data = json_decode($json, true); //decoding json

$file = fopen(‘text.txt’, “w+”);//creating file
fwrite($file, “Response: “.json_encode($data));//writing data on it full body

fclose($file);

Open text.txt file and see magic 🙂
