How do I integrate Opensend with a custom webhook flow?

Custom Webhook flow will allow you to receive data for all events, including recurring events for an email.

To integrate Opensend with a Custom webhook flow, you will need:

1. Webhook method
2. Authorization (If it's required)
3. Webhook URL

Webhook Integration Options

You can configure your webhook integration in one of two ways, depending on how you want to handle incoming events from Other Connections:

1. Single Integration

• Setup: Use a single Custom Webhook Flow without any filters.

• Behavior: All event types are delivered to the same endpoint.

• Event Identification: The payload includes the event type, allowing you to distinguish events in your code.

2. Multiple Integrations

• Setup: Create separate integrations for each event type.

• Behavior: Apply filters to route specific events to different endpoints.

• Use Case: Ideal if you want to isolate event handling across different services or systems.
