Introduction to Leafy Energy webhooks

What are Leafy Energy webhooks?

Webhooks are HTTP calls that Leafy Energy sends to your system whenever something important happens. Instead of polling the API, you receive real-time notifications about relevant events.

Typical use cases

• Forwarding price changes to your own dashboard.
• Logging charging sessions into an external data warehouse.
• Triggering home automation when events occur (for example: session started, high price, low price).

How does it work conceptually?

1. You register an endpoint URL in the Leafy Energy portal.
2. You select which event types you want to receive.
3. Leafy Energy sends a POST request with a JSON payload to your endpoint.

In the demo environment you use webhooks to explain architecture and integration patterns without touching real energy contracts.
