About this API
Adyen's Management Webhooks provide a mechanism to receive real-time notifications about events related to your Adyen company and merchant accounts, stores, payment terminals, and payment methods. These webhooks enable systems to stay updated automatically without polling the API.
Developers integrating with Adyen's Management API can use these webhooks to build automated workflows, monitor account changes, and respond promptly to payment-related events. This is particularly useful for maintaining synchronization between Adyen's platform and internal systems.
While the exact authentication method is not detailed, the webhooks complement the Management API by pushing event data, reducing the need for frequent API calls and improving efficiency in handling account and payment lifecycle events.
