2 Create a webhook endpoint

Set up an HTTP webhook URL that can accept a JSON payload via a POST request from Maya.
Keep in mind
Webhooks should be SSL-secured (https) and publicly accessible.
In addition, it is recommended that you configure SSL on port 443, otherwise your application may experience network issues when integrating with Maya.
3 Handle requests from Maya

It is crucial that you handle webhook events correctly to ensure that your integration's logic works as expected.
Maya sends events to your webhook endpoint as part of a POST request with a JSON payload. Your endpoint must be configured to receive it for a given event and is expected to return a 2xx response status codes.
Check JSON payload
Each event is structured as an object with an id, paymentStatus and other payment details. Your endpoint must check the paymentStatus and parse the payload of each event.
Explore Maya's sample JSON webhook payloads.
Return a 2xx response
Before executing any complex logic that may cause a timeout or validation error, your endpoint should promptly respond with a successful status code (2xx).
Built-in retries
The webhooks of Payment Solutions come with automatic retry mechanisms for response status codes of 3xx, 4xx, or 5xx. The system will attempt a maximum of four (4) retries.
- Immediately after the status event is triggered
5 minutesafter the previous webhook call failed15 minutesafter the previous webhook call failed45 minutesafter previous webhook call failedIf Maya doesn’t quickly receive a
2xxresponse status code for an event, we mark the event as failed and stop trying to send it to your endpoint.
Handle duplicate events
We recommend that you process webhooks in an idempotent manner as your webhook endpoints might receive the same event from Maya more than once (e.g. you manually invoked webhook via Maya Manager, or from Maya's built-in retries). An effective approach is to log the events you have already processed and avoid processing events that have already been logged.
4 Test your webhook endpoint

Test that your webhook endpoint is working properly. You can execute your webhook endpoint via a simple curl command or through an API client application like Postman.
Sample Webhook Endpoint Test via curl
When the output of the curl command shows a 200 response code that means that your webhook endpoint is reachable and will return a status 200 OK.

5 Register your webhook URLs to Maya
Click here to view full details
Keep in mind
For plugin users: To ensure that your webhooks are properly registered when using plugins, register them through the plugin dashboard. It will automatically populate Maya Manager. It is important to avoid editing the auto-generated webhook URLs in Maya Manager.
Maya needs to know where to send the events. To do so, you should provide the publicly accessible HTTPS URL for your webhook endpoint and indicate the type of events that you wish to receive.
You can register your webhook endpoints by accessing the Settings menu in Maya Business Manager, or by using the Create Webhook endpoint.
When you register webhooks using the Create Webhook endpoint, they will also be visible in Maya Business Manager under the Settings section.
