Webhook Event
ConceptsA webhook event is a single occurrence that DocLD sends to your webhook endpoint. When something happens—for example a job completes, a document is processed, or an extraction finishes—DocLD can POST a webhook payload to your URL so your system can react in real time.
Event Types
Events might include:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Job completed | Parsing, extraction, or other async job finished |
| Document processed | Document is parsed and indexed |
| Extraction done | Extraction run completed with results |
The webhook payload includes the event type, resource IDs, timestamps, and optional detail. Your endpoint should respond quickly (e.g. 2xx) and process asynchronously if needed; DocLD may retry on failure.

Webhook is the configured endpoint and subscription; webhook payload is the JSON body of each event. Use idempotency when handling events because the same event may be delivered more than once on retry.
