Jira Webhooks API

This resource represents webhooks. Webhooks are calls sent to a URL when an event occurs in Jira for issues specified by a JQL query. Only Connect and OAuth 2.0 apps can register and manage webhooks. For more information, see [Webhooks](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/webhooks/#registering-a-webhook-via-the-jira-rest-api-for-connect-apps).
