Webhooks Management

Webhooks can be used to build integrations between Quartzy and other software tools used in your lab, which helps save costs and improve efficiency by automating tasks. Webhooks allow you to receive events as HTTP POST requests to a server when events occur in Quartzy. They are outbound in nature, which means they sync information from Quartzy to another tool.

Some common use cases include: 

• Communication and Task management
  • Keep track of your Quartzy order status updates in Slack or Microsoft Teams
  • Create a task in Asana or a reminder in Google Calendar  
• Reporting/Analytics
  • Automatically keep track of your lab's expenses in Google Sheets  
• Inventory Management
  • Sync information about Quartzy inventory items to your favorite database tools such as SharePoint, Excel, Google Sheets, etc. 

For more details, see Quartzy's Developer Platform.
