Configuring notifications when users sign up for an account

Configuring a signup notification

Open the Fotoware site management (Tools - Site Configuration), expand the Integrations node and choose Webhooks. where you can configure webhooks for two events related to users signing up.

When users register for an account, there are two stages at which Fotoware can issue a notification in the form of a webhook:

• ​When the initial signup has been received. The webhook is issued after the user has verified his account by following the link that is sent to his email address and filled in any additional required information on that page.
• When the signup is completed, i.e. when the account is created and ready for use. Whether administrators are required to finally approve new signups can be configured in the Enabling users to sign up topic.

This means that the two notifications will be sent at different times if the system has been configured to make administrators approve signups, whereas if admin approval of new signups it not required the account is created immediately after user email verification, and thus the notifications will be issued directly one after the other.
