# Webhooks

## Receiving Webhooks

While creating an inscription order using [Create a Direct Inscription Order](/api/create-a-direct-inscription-order.md) or [Create a Collection Order](/api/create-a-collection-order.md) you can provide a webhook URL and you can receive updates on your orders sent directly to a publicly reachable endpoint you provide.

Here are the regular states an inscription order will go through and the format of the `body` of `POST` request your `webhookUrl` will receive:

#### Payment seen on mempool, pending confirmation

```json
{
    "id":"4fc7b183-b06f-4cb0-b592-7bc9e9cd05ff",
    "state":"waiting-confirmation"
}
```

#### Payment confirmed, inscription data is being prepared

```json
{
    "id":"4fc7b183-b06f-4cb0-b592-7bc9e9cd05ff",
    "state":"prep"
}
```

#### Inscription queued for processing

```json
{
    "id":"4fc7b183-b06f-4cb0-b592-7bc9e9cd05ff",
    "state":"queued"
}
```

Note that you will get below data for each file in your order
