Frequently asked questions
How do I use this plugin?
Once you have installed the plugin and added your webhook URL in the Plugin Settings then the plugin will automatically start sending data for any newly published or deleted posts and pages to that URL. You then need to configure what you want to do with that data from within your 3rd party service. A detailed walkthrough, using AirTable as an example, is available on my website Jonathan-Wright.com
