Invoice webhooks

Receive webhook notifications whenever invoices are finalized or canceled. Invoice webhooks can be used to trigger actions in your application whenever an invoice is changed, for example to keep an external invoicing or accounting system up to date.

Events

EventDescription
invoice.finalizedOccurs whenever a new invoice is finalized.
invoice.canceledOccurs whenever an invoice is canceled.
info

When an invoice is canceled, a webhook for the original invoice is triggered with the invoice.canceled event and the payload includes canceled_at and cancellation_invoice_id. We do NOT send a separate webhook for the cancellation invoice itself.

Example Payload

We return JSON-formatted content with the following structure.
