# Webhooks plugin for Obsidian
An [[Obsidian]] plugin that enables seamless integration between Obsidian and external services, by enabling those to call into your Obsidian vault and make things happen.
The idea is as follows:
- There's a Web application attached to this Obsidian plugin where you can sign up and create a Webhook
- Once signed into the Web application, you can also sign in using a generated token in this Obsidian plugin's settings
- Once done, you can configure any external application/service to make calls to the Webhook
- When that webhook is called, your Obsidian plugin will be notified, and will be able to handle the results
Example use cases:
- Add thoughts to your notes by talking to AI assistants
- Create notes every time you like a song on Spotify
- Capture a note every time you react to a Slack message with a pencil emoji
- ...
Basically, it helps automating content/knowledge capture by hooking third-party services to your notes.
This plugin was created by [[Stephen Solka]].
