Hi @rapture100,
Webhooks will get triggered from the POS device if the correct permissions have been granted. You can read more about webhooks here: https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/docs/webhooks. Please note:

Clover does not guarantee when, or if, notifications will be received through the webhook service. If you require a more robust solution, you may either implement your own or use an external message delivery service.

Hi Lauren,

Can you provide more context around how we can implement our own solution? Without updating Clover's code to guarantee events are sent, I'm not sure how to implement a robust solution as any such solution requires that posting of messages is guaranteed which you're saying it is not.

Thanks.

You can't implement webhooks on your own. The text that Lauren posted was from our old docs which were incorrect. Improving our webhook infrastructure is something we have an open issue for.
