How to set up the WooCommerce order created webhook
- Click Install in Studio and sign in. The recipe is added to your account and you get a personal webhook URL.
- In your WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Webhooks and click Add webhook.
- Set Status to Active, Topic to Order created, and API version to WP REST API Integration v3.
- Paste your webhook URL as the Delivery URL and save. WooCommerce sends a ping right away to confirm it works.https://••••••••/•••••••• your personal URL, shown after install
What runs when the webhook arrives
Studio calls handleRequest(request) with the incoming webhook and sends the message it returns. It's yours after install; change anything.
