Which webhook fires when a reply is accepted?

[deleted] 2 months ago Resolved

I want to notify an external system whenever a reply is accepted as the answer in a Q&A space. I see post and reply created events — is there a dedicated accepted-answer webhook, or do I listen for an update?

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.
