Limitations
- Webhooks are only available for applications with grant type client_credentials using an access of type "Agency Manager" (single agency access) and scope "api.profilesondemand.read".
- Notifications can not be tailored to include / exclude specific profiles. Notifications will be sent for all profiles within a travel agency.
- Notifications might be delivered, even if no actual profile data has been changed.
- The notification itself denotes a profile identifier and nothing more. Specifically, it does not contain any profile data or information on what may have changed within the profile.
Receiving Webhooks
Payload
{ "eventTime": "18.03.2024T09:56:17Z" "profileType": "TRAVELLER", "event": "UPDATE", "uuid": "25b46ba4-0e9e-4baa-83bd-ac21a50ef998", "company": { "uuid": "34f277f5-2618-4c9e-aa08-affa9f02dfaa" "name": "ACME Inc." } }
Field | Description |
---|---|
eventTime | UTC-Timestamp in format "dd.MM.yyyy'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'" of when the event has originally happened |
profileType | The profile type for which this notification is sent:
|
event | The notification type:
|
uuid | The Umbrella Faces UUID of the affected profile |
company | For profileType TRAVELLER only: UUID + Name of the company currently associated with the traveler profile. |
Message authentication
Each Webhook invocation will include the custom header "X-FacesWebhookSignature", which consist of the request body hashed using HMAC-SHA256 with the secret configured during Webhook setup in hex format.
Example: Using the above payload and secret S3cret! one would compute a hash value of 92649059fe0fc9457cba7b4e80da4fa42ce0528583517da66826c61e75dba624
Delivery
Payloads are delivered via HTTPS POST only. Each notification will be transmitted with an individual POST request without applying any batching logic and without any guaranteed order.
The recipient Server must present a trusted certificate and return a HTTP 2XX status code within 10 seconds for the notification delivery to be considered successful.
In case of an error Umbrella Faces will attempt to re-deliver the the notification up to 5 times over the next 2 hours before silently discarding the notification.
Depending on the number of notifications on our Webhook notification queue, individual notifications might be delayed for a longer time
Managing Webhooks
Webhooks are managed in a self-service fashion via the following set of APIs.
Each create / update triggers an immediate "PING" notification (with no retries) to the configured endpoint, and will only be accepted if the PING is succesful
