Tip: Organization のオーナー権限もしくはリポジトリの管理者権限を持つメンバーだけが、 manage webhooks for an organization. For more information, see "Roles in an organization."
Webhooks can be triggered whenever a variety of actions are performed on a repository or an organization. For example, you can configure a webhook to execute whenever:
- A repository is pushed to
- A pull request is opened
- A GitHub Pages site is built
- A new member is added to a team
Using the GitHub API, you can make these webhooks update an external issue tracker, trigger CI builds, update a backup mirror, or even deploy to your production server.
To set up a new webhook, you'll need access to an external server and familiarity with the technical procedures involved. For help on building a webhook, including a full list of actions you can associate with, see "Webhooks."
