Webhooks & events
Trigger executions from incoming requests and external events.
Today you start executions by calling the API, on a schedule, or through Compass Chat. Inbound triggers — letting an external system start an execution by reaching out to Compass — are on the way.
Coming soon
These trigger types exist in the platform's model but aren't available yet:
- Webhooks — start an execution from an incoming HTTP request, so an external service can kick off your work directly.
- Events — start an execution when a matching event occurs.
This page will document them once they're released.
In the meantime
To start executions from your own systems now, call the API directly — dispatch an execution and poll or stream it to completion.
