Webhooks are notifications sent by Braintree when certain updates take place in their system. For example, if a subscription is billed successfully, Braintree can send your site a notification with information about the subscription payment. Webhooks are used by the plugin to keep data synced between Braintree and your Wordpress site.
To setup a webhook, perform the following steps:
- Navigate to the Webhooks page in the Braintree Control panel.
- On the webhooks page, click
- Navigate to the Webhook Test page of the plugin.
- Copy the Webhook URL on the Webhook Test page. The URL is dynamically generated based on your permalink settings.
- Paste the URL in the Braintree Webhook url field.
- Select the following webhooks if you have Braintree subscriptions on your site.
- Click
to save the webhooks. - To test the webhook, click the Check URL link.
- If setup correctly, you will receive a 200 response code.
- You can also verify that the webhook log entry for the test is on your site. Debugging must be enabled for the log entry to be present.

Great article, easy to follow, one tip would be to address the fact that braintree changed the UI and the webhooks now are under settings -> API -> webhooks.
Question - what exactly gets updated with the webhooks, is it the subscription data under woocommerce? Like in the following link?
