@nitinkcv I’m one of the founders of API Tracker and this is one of the use case we solve for our customers. We let team set up a API proxy that forward to their webhook handler. You can enable auto retry, queue of failed calls, etc… with a click of a button Sign up for a free account to give it a try or email me at trung@apitracker.com if you have any question |
