Webhooks

What is this?

Webhooks serve as platforms for hosting your business logic or invoking other services. Within a session, webhooks enable you to utilize the data extracted through Dialogflow's natural language processing to generate dynamic responses, verify gathered data, or initiate actions on the backend.

There are two types of webhooks: standard webhooks and flexible webhooks. In the case of a standard webhook, the request and response fields are determined by Dialogflow. On the other hand, a flexible webhook allows you to specify the request and response fields according to your requirements.

With cxcli, you can easily interact with the webhooks of your Dialogflow CX agents.

All of the commands that you have available in cxcli to interact with your webhooks are located within the cxcli webhook subcommand.

You can create, update or delete standard and flexible webhooks with cxcli for a specific environment by setting the --environment parameter. If you do not specify an environment, the cxcli will create, update or delete this webhook for all environments.
