Configure a Webhook in Microsoft Azure

In Azure, a webhook is a trigger mechanism used to invoke background tasks such as:

• Runbooks in Azure Automation

• Web jobs in Web Apps or Service Fabric

• Serverless tasks via Azure Functions

A common use case involves triggering runbooks in Azure Automation. These runbooks can be started externally using HTTP POST requests to a webhook URI generated by Azure.

Example: A developer’s app running on Azure or any internet-enabled platform can POST to the webhook URI, initiating an automation runbook in Azure.
