Daytona now supports webhooks, giving you a simple way to connect sandbox activity to the rest of your stack in real time.
Webhooks are HTTP callbacks that Daytona sends to your specified endpoints whenever key events occur. Instead of polling the API for updates, Daytona proactively notifies your system the moment something happens. Think of them as reverse API calls.
Why It Matters
Webhooks open the door to tighter automation, deeper integrations, and better visibility into everything happening across your environments.
Common use cases include:
Real-Time Notifications: Get instant alerts when sandboxes are created, started, or stopped.
Automated Workflows: Kick off CI/CD or deployment pipelines when snapshots are created.
Monitoring & Analytics: Track usage patterns, resource utilization, and activity trends.
Integrations: Connect Daytona directly to Slack, Discord, or your own internal systems.
Audit & Compliance: Maintain detailed logs of changes across sandboxes, snapshots, and volumes.
Available Events
You can subscribe to events across all core Daytona resources, including:
Sandbox Lifecycle: creation, start, stop, and deletion events.
Snapshot Lifecycle: creation, deletion, and restoration events.
Volume Lifecycle: creation, attachment, and deletion events.
This gives you fine-grained control over which events matter most to your workflows.
Monitoring & Observability
Managing webhooks at scale requires clear visibility, so we’ve built in monitoring from day one:
The Activity tab shows delivery statistics, event volume trends, and performance metrics.
The Logs tab provides detailed history of every delivery, including retries, failures, and status codes for troubleshooting.
Get Started
Adding a webhook to your Daytona organization takes just a few clicks. Define your endpoint, choose the events you care about, and start receiving real-time updates.
Webhooks are available today across all plans. Dive into the docs to learn more and start automating.
