# Syncing subscription statuses

edrone offers a mechanism to notify the e-commerce platform that a customer subscription status has been changed. The eCommerce platform needs to provide an HTTPS endpoint that will be automatically called upon subscription status change.

Example https://www.a_shop.com/update_subscriber_status

# When is webhook invoked?

  • We can send notification on every subscription status change. This can be configured in Mission Control.
  • Currently we do not invoke the webhook when customers are manually imported via CSV file

To add subscription status endpoint, login to your Mission Control Panel then go to Settings and Platforms.

The following fields are sent (POST with JSON) to the eCommerce platform. To extract them in PHP, you should use
$json_body = file_get_contents('php://input');
