We're pleased to announce the launch of Standard Webhooks! Kong has been part of the Technical Committee of this standard with other great companies like Svix (the initiator of the project), Ngrok, Zapier, Twillio, Lob, Mux, and Supabase. This was a year-long effort of gathering feedback, use cases, and debating about what and how to define what landed. Standard Webhooks is one initiative to standardize the way producers and consumers can have a contract to communicate.
