Asynchronous delivery
Events enter a delivery queue before external requests are attempted.
LINKTIMER GUIDE
Reliable signed webhooks for link lifecycle events
LinkTimer queues workspace events and delivers them asynchronously so visitor redirects are not required to wait for third-party endpoints.
What this option gives you
HMAC signatures
Each exact body is signed using the workspace webhook secret.
Retry schedule
Failed deliveries are retried with increasing delays before final failure.
Practical use cases
Slack alerts
Notify a team after the first confirmed open.
CRM updates
Record that a customer link was used.
Compliance logs
Copy lifecycle events into an independent audit system.
Automation
Trigger a downstream workflow after link creation or update.
How it works
Register an HTTPS endpoint
Use a public destination that accepts POST JSON.
Select events
Subscribe only to lifecycle events required by the workflow.
Verify and acknowledge
Validate the signature, then respond quickly with a success status.
Important limitation
Webhook delivery is at least once. Receivers should use event IDs to make processing idempotent.
Frequently asked questions
Are deliveries sent during the visitor redirect?
No. They are queued for asynchronous processing.
What status code indicates success?
Any successful 2xx response is accepted.
Will failed requests retry?
Yes, up to a limited number of attempts.
Can a webhook be paused?
Yes. Workspace admins can disable or delete it.
Authoritative external resources
These links provide additional context from the destination provider or recognized security resources. External sites are responsible for their own content and policies.
