npm Hooks API is one of 10 APIs that [npm](https://apis.io/providers/npm/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification and an AsyncAPI event-driven specification. This API exposes 1 JSON Schema definition. Tagged areas include Webhook, Notification, Event, Automation, and Packages. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an OpenAPI specification, an AsyncAPI specification, and 1 JSON Schema.

The npm Hooks API allows developers to subscribe to notifications about changes in the npm registry. Hooks send HTTP POST payloads to a configured URI whenever a package is changed, enabling developers to build integrations that respond to registry events in real time. Users can add hooks to follow specific packages, track all activity of given npm users, or monitor all packages within an organization or user scope. The API provides endpoints for creating, listing, updating, and deleting hook subscriptions.
