Params

To create a webhook, a data body must be provided. Data can be provided in three formats: XML, JSON and query string. To specify data type of XML or JSON add the Content-type: application/(json|xml) header to request headers, if you want to provide query string simply skip the Content-type header.

All params should be sent in the webhook namespace, e.g.:

XML

<webhook>
  <title>My new webhook</title>
  ...
</space>

JSON

{"webhook":{"title":"My new webhook",...}}

Query string

webhook[title]=Webhook&...
