However, Webhooks have advantages and disadvantages over <strong>APIs for application integration.<\/strong><\/p><p>Webhooks are a better solution in some cases. This is the case if data is frequently updated on the server, as unnecessary API calls from the client to the server are eliminated. According to resthooks.com, 98.5% of API calls are unnecessary.<\/p><p>Webhooks are also a better solution for systems requiring real-time data updates. <strong>API calls<\/strong> are usually executed at specific intervals, preventing real-time updates. This is not the case with webhooks, since updates are sent from the server to the client as soon as the webhook is activated.<\/p><p>In other situations, however, APIs are preferable. They enable you to customize the frequency and volume of data requests sent to the server. In the case of webhooks, this decision is generally automated by the server.<\/p><p>For systems handling highly variable data, such as real-time or IoT systems, APIs may be a better option. This is because, for each <a href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/api-integration-in-python-databases-made-easy\">API call,<\/a> the probability of actionable responses is very high.<\/p><p>Finally, data pushed by a server via a Webhook can be completely ignored by the client if the REST endpoints are offline. If the server has no mechanism for retrying the transfer in the event of failure, data updates will be lost entirely.<\/p><p>To avoid this danger, it is possible to use a queue of event messages to store the calls. Examples include the RabbitMQ and Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) platforms. These platforms are designed to serve as intermediate storage, eliminating the risk of losing a call webhook.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-33b16fef e-flex e-con-boxed e-con\" data-id=\"33b16fef\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35b660 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"35b660\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Webhooks on Slack<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6694dcb5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6694dcb5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Many platforms offer the possibility of creating Webhooks that can be used in custom applications.
