Outemit docs

Outbound webhook infrastructure. You emit events; Outemit delivers signed HTTPS POSTs to your customers' endpoints with retries, a delivery log, and a customer portal.

Time to first delivery

The shortest path: create an application, add an endpoint (localhost is fine in Test), copy the whsec_ once, mint a sk_test_ key, emit with curl, then open Deliveries to see status and response body.

Prefer a guided walkthrough? Start with Getting started. Prefer local tooling? See the CLI and Testing guides.

Pick a path

I want my first signed delivery

Signup → endpoint → API key → curl emit → inspect.

I want to verify signatures

Standard Webhooks headers, tolerance, Node/Python/Go.

I want to debug a failed delivery

Status codes, retries, response bodies, Retry vs Replay.

I want the API reference

Method, path, params, request and response examples.

I want the customer portal

Embed, capabilities, what your customers can self-serve.

I want the CLI

outemit trigger and outemit listen --forward.

ID prefixes

Every resource id is prefixed so logs and support tickets stay scannable.
