# Create a webhook endpoint

POST https://api.cloudraker.com/v1/webhooks
Content-Type: application/json

Saves a delivery target you can point any run at.

Reference it from a run as `webhook: { "id": "whe_…" }` — on [extract](https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/capabilities/extract), [fill](https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/capabilities/fill), [pipeline](https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/capabilities/pipeline), any of them. Runs keep the *reference*, never a URL snapshot, so pausing or re-pointing an endpoint takes effect on runs already in flight.

```json
{
  "url": "https://example.com/hooks/cloudraker",
  "events": ["run.completed", "run.failed"]
}
```

**Event types** — omit `events` to receive all of them:

- `processing.started`
- `file.processed`
- `file.failed`
- `run.completed`
- `run.failed`
- `processing.completed`
- `processing.expired`

**Delivery guarantees.** At-least-once, so dedupe on `eventId`. Up to 5 attempts with backoff, each signed ES256 — verify against [the public keys](https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/webhooks/webhook-jwks), and check what actually landed with [the delivery log](https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/webhooks/list-webhook-deliveries).
