# Webhooks

Webhooks allow you to receive status updates on orders you have submitted as they move through the order lifecycle.

> Processing webhooks is very important, as otherwise you will not be notified of any issues that may prevent your orders from being processed.

> If you have an [Editor API](https://www.whcc.com/developer/docs/editor-api/index.html.md) integration, please follow the documentation [here](https://www.whcc.com/developer/docs/editor-api/webhooks/index.html.md) instead.

## Configuring webhooks is a two step process:

Additionally, WHCC [signs](https://www.whcc.com/developer/docs/order-submit-api/webhook-security/index.html.md) all webhook requests with an HMAC signature in order to verify it's from WHCC and intended for your consumption.
