The Webhook Endpoint object

Create a webhook endpoint

POST / v1 / webhook_endpoints

A webhook endpoint must have a url and a list of enabled_events. You may optionally specify the Boolean connect parameter. If set to true, then a Connect webhook endpoint that notifies the specified url about events from all connected accounts is created; otherwise an account webhook endpoint that notifies the specified url only about events from your account is created. You can also create webhook endpoints in the webhooks settings section of the Dashboard.
