# Webhook

Eshopbox observes several events that you can attach webhooks to. With a webhook,  you can attach custom code that performs actions outside of the Eshopbox ecosystem.

You may want to send a survey email after an order is fulfilled. You can do this via a webhook that sends event data to your custom function.
