Webhook API

Webhooks is an API feature that allows your system to receive notifications about certain events.

When an event occurs, the Printful server will make a POST request to your defined URL that will contain a JSON object in the request body. Your server has to respond with HTTP status 200 OK, otherwise the request will be retried in increasing intervals (after 1, 4, 16, 64, 256 and 1024 minutes)

The JSON object will always contain these attributes:

type string Event type
created timestamp Event time
retries integer Number of previous attempts to deliver this webhook event
store integer ID of the store that the event occured to
data Object Additional data, depending on the event type

Webhook event requests

Currently available webhook event types:

package_shipped Event

POST http://example.com/your-webhook-url

Is called when a shipment with all or part of the ordered items is shipped.

If the order is shipped in multiple packages, this event will be called for every package sent.

If some items are reshipped, a shipping notification will be sent again for the same items.
