Definition
A deployment triggered by an HTTP event, often from Git pushes.
Real-world example
A push to main on GitHub triggers a POST to your Better-PaaS webhook URL; the platform pulls the commit and starts a new build.
Common mistake
Exposing the webhook URL without validating signatures or branch filters, allowing unintended deploys.
Better-PaaS in practice
Each app can register a Git webhook. Verify delivery in GitHub's webhook log if auto-deploy stops firing.
FAQ
Is webhook deployment only relevant to Better-PaaS?
No. webhook deployment appears across Docker, cloud platforms, and self-hosted tooling. Better-PaaS exposes the concept in deploy logs, dashboard fields, or docs when it affects your app.
