Webhooks

Update Event Notification Settings

PATCH /v3/user/webhooks/event/settings

Base url: https://api.sendgrid.com

This endpoint allows you to update your current event webhook settings.

If an event type is marked as true, then the event webhook will include information about that event.

SendGrid’s Event Webhook will notify a URL of your choice via HTTP POST with information about events that occur as SendGrid processes your email.

Common uses of this data are to remove unsubscribes, react to spam reports, determine unengaged recipients, identify bounced email addresses, or create advanced analytics of your email program.
