How to configure webhooks to get notified of new PDF form submissions

A powerful way to connect SimplePDF with other services such as Zapier or Activepieces is to use webhooks.

Webhooks?

Webhooks allow to connect applications with one another by sending data in real-time from one application to the other(s) whenever a given event happens.

In SimplePDF, every time a PDF is submitted via your company portal, either using form links or embed in your website, an event is sent out containing the document name and submission URL among other things.

From there, the sky is the limit and you can let your imagination run free.

You could for example save that information in a Google sheet or integrate it with Zapier or Activepieces and unlock even more possibilities!

Configuring webhooks in SimplePDF

Configuring webhooks is available under the PREMIUM plan

  • Log in to your account

  • Click Update configuration
  • Enter the webhook URL of the service or application to which you want to send events

Configure webhooks: configuration details

  • Optional: specify the headers to send as part of the webhook

That's it! An event will be sent everytime there's a new submission
