Webhook and callback documentation for workflow completion, publishing, and downstream automation
researchMTR uses callback-style integrations to return results to connected systems. This documentation frame explains when webhook delivery makes sense, how to secure it, and how WordPress-connected publishing workflows should respond to completion events.
The safest callback patterns are explicit, validated, and retry-aware
Signed or tokenized delivery
Protect callback endpoints with tokens, signatures, or another validation layer so downstream systems can trust the incoming request.
Idempotent processing
Receiving systems should be able to safely process the same completion event more than once without creating duplicate outcomes.
Retry strategy
Document how failures are handled, what counts as a transient error, and how the receiving system should surface or log unsuccessful deliveries.
Editorial review controls
For publishing destinations like WordPress, map completed events into draft-first or review-first states when full auto-publishing is not appropriate.
- Job identifier and workflow context
- Status and completion timestamp
- Validated content or asset payload
- Error detail for failed deliveries
Trigger
A user or connected platform starts a workflow that may take time to complete.
Process
researchMTR completes the work and prepares a stable completion payload for the receiving system.
Receive
The destination validates the callback, stores the result, and moves it into editorial or operational review.
