Are webhooks reliable?

## Transcript

are web hooks reliable it's a really good concern that you might have wondering whether or not you will actually receive delivery of some notification of an event happening if the third party that you're working with that's sending you web hook notifications is rock solid they will often have a retry mechanism built in if they send you a post request notifying you of an event that happened in the third party system and you don't respond with a proper 200 response then the third party if doing the right thing they will retry and attempt to resend that same event until they receive a successful 200 status response this is what stripe does so you can really depend on and rely on stripes web hooks because if you if your server is down or for some reason you miss an event and you respond with any other status code of any status code other than a 200 then stripe will retry sending that web hook for up to three days with exponential back off
