API Webhook Versioning Basics

Version webhooks cleanly

Versioning webhooks means including version fields or headers, keeping old payloads during migration, documenting changes, and giving consumers test endpoints plus timelines to upgrade.

Mark Versions

Include version in payload/header; keep changelog.

Offer Migration

Provide test endpoints and samples; run old/new in parallel.

Set Timelines

Communicate upgrade windows and deprecate old payloads gradually.
