Configure a Webhook in Visual Studio GIT

After the 25.3.9 release, the structure of the webhook payload URL was updated. Customers need to update the webhook URL in the repository settings of their remote repo. Some customers are still using the old webhook URL containing autorabitrest, which should now be replaced with api.

Example:

Old URL: https://na25.autorabit.com/autorabitrest/webhook/triggerSCMPushrequest

Updated URL: https://na25.autorabit.com/api/webhook/triggerSCMPushrequest

Unless you update the Payload URL, you might face pull request/trigger build-on-commit jobs triggering.

1. Click Create Subscription.

2. The wizard will display a list of available services for integration.

1. Configure Basic Authentication:

• Username: Your ARM login username

• Password: Webhook API Token generated from ARM

1. Re-enter your AutoRABIT username and webhook token to complete authentication.

Note: For events like Pull Request Created or Pull Request Updated, use the same URL and credentials.

1. Review the configuration, test the subscription, and complete the setup.

1. Click Finish. The webhook will now appear in the Service Hooks tab.

1. Once triggered, verify webhook success from the service hook tab. You can also view webhook history to see trigger count and outcomes.
