About global webhooks

You can use global webhooks to notify an external web server when events occur within your enterprise. You can configure the server to receive the webhook's payload, then run an application or code that monitors, responds to, or enforces rules for user and organization management for your enterprise. For more information, see Webhooks documentation.

For example, you can configure GitHub to send a webhook when someone creates, deletes, or modifies a repository or organization within your enterprise. You can configure the server to automatically perform a task after receiving the webhook.

You can also use the REST API to manage global webhooks. For a complete list of endpoints, see "REST API endpoints for global webhooks."
