Elementary POS Webhook

Webhook is called, in case of an event in the Elementary POS. You can connect your system with Elementary POS. For example, if a receipt has been created, your system will be notified. Your endpoint must return HTTP status 200. In case of an error, the call is repeated. If there are too many errors, the webhook will be disconnected automatically. URL will be called with type and id query parameters (HTTP GET method).
For example https://YOUR_WEBHOOK_URI?type=receipt_created&id=RECEIPT_UUID
Type values:
  • receipt_created - When a new receipt is created. May be delayed if the cash register is offline.
  • receipt_updated - When the receipt is updated. May be delayed if the cash register is offline.
  • receipt_deleted - When the receipt is deleted. May be delayed if the cash register is offline.
