> A webhook is a merchant-registered endpoint that receives commerce event callbacks — a name, a URL, live and all flags, a per-event map, an enabled flag, and the shared access token each delivery posts IN THE BODY.

A webhook is a merchant-registered endpoint that receives commerce event callbacks — a name, a URL, live and all flags, a per-event map, an enabled flag, and the shared access token each delivery posts IN THE BODY. Two things to know before registering one: that token is a plainly readable field, so anyone who may read webhooks reads every endpoint's secret, and delivery consults only the all flag and the event map — it does NOT consult enabled or live, so setting enabled false does not stop delivery and deleting the row is the only thing that does. Delivery is a single POST with a twenty-second timeout and no retry. Re-dispatches the request into the handler the intended verb would have reached, taking that verb from a \_method form value or query parameter and then from the X-HTTP-Method-Override header. PUT replaces the row, PATCH changes part of it, DELETE removes it, and anything else is 405. The trap is the DEFAULT: naming no override at all leaves the method POST, which this tunnel maps to the PARTIAL UPDATE — it is never a create, and creating is the collection root's job. Behaviour and authorization are the underlying operation's, since the real handler runs. The token must carry the ADMIN permission; an ordinary access token is refused.

## Request

1 field.

| Field       | In   | Type   | Required | Description |
| ----------- | ---- | ------ | -------- | ----------- |
| `webhookid` | path | string | yes      |             |

## Response

The document declares no response body for this operation. It answers `200` on success and the platform error shape on failure — see [Errors](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/errors).

## Examples

**CLI**

`hanzo` has no subcommand for this operation — the CLI serves only what cloud's live route table confirms. Use HTTP or an SDK.

**SDK**

**.ts**

```ts
import { Configuration, CommerceApi } from 'hanzoai';

const api = new CommerceApi(new Configuration({ accessToken: process.env.HANZO_API_KEY }));
const { data } = await api.postCommerceWebhookByWebhookid({ webhookid: 'webhookid' });
```

**.py**

```python
from hanzoai.cloud import ApiClient, Configuration
from hanzoai.cloud.api import CommerceApi

client = ApiClient(Configuration(access_token=os.environ["HANZO_API_KEY"]))
result = CommerceApi(client).post_commerce_webhook_by_webhookid(webhookid='webhookid')
```

**.go**

```go
cfg := hanzoai.NewConfiguration()
cfg.AddDefaultHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+os.Getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"))
client := hanzoai.NewAPIClient(cfg)

resp, _, err := client.CommerceAPI.PostCommerceWebhookByWebhookid(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

**.rs**

```rust
use hanzo_client::apis::{configuration::Configuration, commerce_api};

let mut cfg = Configuration::new();
cfg.bearer_access_token = std::env::var("HANZO_API_KEY").ok();

let result = commerce_api::post_commerce_webhook_by_webhookid(&cfg, Default::default()).await?;
```

**.java**

```java
import ai.hanzo.cloud.ApiClient;
import ai.hanzo.cloud.api.CommerceApi;

ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
client.setBearerToken(System.getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"));

var result = new CommerceApi(client).postCommerceWebhookByWebhookid();
```

The method above is the one at the current release of the document. `hanzoai@8.5.914` (npm) and `hanzoai@8.5.914` (PyPI) were generated from an earlier release, where this operation carried a different id, so it spells the method differently — regenerating the clients is what makes the two agree. [SDKs →](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/sdks)

**HTTP**

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/commerce/webhook/<webhookid> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY"
```

**MCP**

MCP reaches **commerce** through the `commerce` tool, which names its 5 operations with its own verbs — this one among them, under a name only MCP declares. `describe` explains any of them:

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "jsonrpc": "2.0",
       "id": 1,
       "method": "tools/call",
       "params": {
         "name": "describe",
         "arguments": {
           "op": "get_commerce_health"
         }
       }
     }'
```
