Web Hooks

messhias

Hello,

We are using lightspeed as third-party api to integrate the point-of-sale solution into our customers, however, as has already been reported in a previous topic of mine (this: https://community.lightspeedhq.com/en/discussion/comment/ 6497 # Comment_6497) some functions are not possible to be used by the API only by lightspeed dashboard itself.

Our current question is whether for every action on the dashboard (or any if available) is there any kind of web hook or if we can configure some? Because as we are in communication with you some things need to be updated in our database and others even included.

Thank you for your support.

Hi Messhias,

The retail API unfortunately does not have webhook support because of this you will have to poll the API every so often for changes. You can do so by filtering on the `timestamp`.

Ok, thanks for your answer.

Adding webhooks to LS retail SPI would be a very appreciated feature. Developers need to connect LS with their own projects or third party market places.

We are currently having problems syncing our products from LS and webhooks will be a great solution. I consider that in 2019 is quite old fashioned that Lightspeed Retail API lacks webhooks
