Update webhook

PUT https://www.digicert.com/services/v2/webhook/{{webhook_id}}

Use this endpoint to update a CertCentral webhook.

Note

When you change the endpoint for a webhook, you must verify the endpoint before it can receive webhook events. After changing the endpoint, complete a verification challenge and activate the webhook.

Request parameters

Name	Opt/Req	Type	Description
endpoint	required	string	Endpoint URL where your webhook listener is hosted. Must begin with https://. Learn more: Webhook endpoint requirements
secret	optional	string	Secret key value. Must be at least 32 characters. To add or change a secret key, provide a new `secret` value in your request. To remove the secret key from a webhook, submit an empty string (`""`) as the value of the `secret` parameter. To leave the existing secret key unchanged, omit the `secret` parameter from your request. If a `secret` is configured for the webhook, events DigiCert sends to your endpoint include an `X-WEBHOOK-KEY` request header. This request header contains your secret key value. For increased security, configure your webhook listener to validate the `X-WEBHOOK-KEY` value in each received event. If no `secret` is configured for the webhook, DigiCert omits the `X-WEBHOOK-KEY` request header from events sent to your webhook listener.
events	optional	array of strings	List of event types the webhook is subscribed to. To change the webhook `endpoint` without changing the events the webhook is subscribed to, omit the `events` request parameter. Allowed values: See Webhook events.
webhook_settings	optional	object	Optional settings for customizing certificate issued, validation expired, and revalidation notice events.
.. instant_issue_webhook_notification	optional	array of integers	Array of values that determine when you receive notifications for `organization_expired`, `organization_revalidation_notice`, `domain_expired`, and `domain_revalidation_notice` events. The `webhook_notification_frequency` array should include one or more of the following numbers (order doesn't matter): `90`: 90 days before event `60`: 60 days before event `30`: 30 days before event `7`: Seven days before event `0`: Day of event `-7`: Seven days after event
.. instant_issue_webhook_notification	optional	string	If `0`, CertCentral sends `certificate_issued` events only for certificates that are not issued the instant the order is created. If `1`, CertCentral sends `certificate_issued` events every time a certificate is issued, including certificates issued immediately.
.. webhook_send_certificate_chain	optional	string	If `1`, `certificate_issued` events for public and private TLS/SSL certificates include the certificate chain for certificates that are not not issued the instant the order is created. Otherwise, `0` (default). Learn more: Customize certificate issued events
.. webhook_send_instant_issued_certificate_chain	optional	string	If `1`, `certificate_issued` events for public and private TLS/SSL certificates include the certificate chain for certificates issued the instant the order is created. Otherwise, `0` (default). Learn more: Customize certificate issued events
