Using a tool that enables you to use Webhooks, you can connect Kintone with various services supported by the tool.
Examples of the tool are Zapier, Microsoft Power Automate, IFTTT and so on.

When a Webhook is configured in a Kintone app, a notification is sent as the following actions are carried out in the app.

• Adding a record
• Editing a record
• Deleting a record
• Posting a comment
• Updating the status (When the process management status is updated)

For details on parameters used in Webhook notifications that are triggered by actions in Kintone, refer to Content of Webhook Notifications Triggered by Actions on Kintone.
