Handling a callback url

Handling a callback url
April 17, 2026 05:18AM
Hi,
I'm totally at sea with some of the internet technologies, though I have been able to survive using WebDev.

Has anyone ever processed a callback url after an HTTPSend() call. Some sample code would be of great help.

Thanks and regards

Wow,

With all the RESTful api's out there, no one has had to handle a callback url? I thought it was the "in thing".

Surprised.....I need help.

Regards

In the cases i have used rest webservices done by others with callback URL i have creted one webservice myself and provided the URL of my webservice as the callback URL

It was somehing like:
POST /api.example.com/foo?callbackURL=https://my.server.com/my_rest_ws_enpoint

Hi. 3 Years ago I uploaded a project to the repository that processes callbacks from Meta. Processing those callbacks were required by whatsapp API.

As Pao said, you have to create a webservice.

Hello and thanks for the help/suggestions.

I got help from a friend who wrote a PHP script in the callback to log the event. I subsequently enhanced the script to write into the database. WebDev took it from there. will investigate the Webservice options at a later date so I can keep all the code consistent.

Since then, I've gotten some new ideas which makes me realize that the biggest problem was not fully understanding the whole concept of a callback. I'm growing too old....spinning smiley sticking its tongue out

Thanks once again
