type: Webhooks
note: >-
  Tonkean publishes no AsyncAPI document. Its documented event surface is
  the webhook connection layer of the platform's data-source system, which
  supports both directions. No event catalog (named event types) is
  published — payloads are whatever the connected application sends.
webhooks:
  direction: bidirectional
  inbound:
    description: >-
      A third-party application or external system sends data to Tonkean via a
      per-data-source webhook URL, providing near-real-time data updates
      without polling. Used to connect and sync data with virtually any
      third-party application that supports outbound webhooks.
    payload_formats: [application/json, application/xml]
    payload_shapes: [JSON object, array of JSON objects, XML]
    authentication: "None — docs state 'No authentication headers are needed'; the webhook URL is the credential"
    field_mapping: "Received payloads are mapped to Tonkean items; `id` (unique ID from the source application) and `title` field paths must be mapped"
    setup: "Enterprise Components > New Data Source > Cloud Application (Custom Source) or New Custom Source > copy webhook URL into the external application"
  outbound:
    description: >-
      Tonkean sends data to a third-party application or external system as
      part of module workflows (documented as the outbound webhook type of
      the data-source webhook system).
