Hook0 connects your applications to external systems through a hierarchical structure:

  1. Organizations group your team and applications
  2. Applications represent your services that emit events
  3. Events are notifications sent when actions occur
  4. Event Types categorize and validate your events
  5. Labels route events to the correct subscriptions
  6. Subscriptions define where to deliver webhooks
  7. Request Attempts track each delivery attempt

Core Concepts​

Structure & Organization​

  • Organizations - Multi-tenant containers for teams and applications
  • Applications - Logical containers grouping events and subscriptions

Events & Routing​

  • Events - Notifications sent from your applications to Hook0
  • Event Types - Categorize and structure your events
  • Labels - Filter and route events to subscriptions
  • Metadata - Attach arbitrary key-value data to objects
