# Webhooks

> Webhooks documentation

RankYak offers webhooks to notify your systems about important events.  Webhooks are a way for RankYak to automatically send data to a URL you specify whenever a specific event happens.  This allows you to integrate RankYak with your own applications and workflows.

## Webhook Format

RankYak webhooks are sent as `POST` requests with a JSON payload. The content type of the request is `application/json`.

## Webhooks
