Learn how to create and configure webhooks to integrate your rotations with external tools and automate workflows.

Webhooks allow you to integrate Rotation App with your other tools by automatically triggering actions when rotation events occur.

Common use cases include:

• Syncing the on-call user with incident management platforms like PagerDuty or Incident.io
• Updating task management tools like Linear or Jira
• Notifying monitoring services like BetterStack
• Triggering custom workflows in your own systems

For example, when the on-call user changes in Rotation App, a webhook can automatically update the corresponding on-call schedule in PagerDuty to keep both systems in sync.
