Which events do Boarbs webhooks send?

Posts, comments, post status changes, vote created and deleted, and Linear linked, status changed, and unlinked. See the webhooks docs for the payload fields.

How do I verify a webhook?

Boarbs signs the payload. You receive the signing secret once when you create or rotate the endpoint. Verify it in your backend before you trust the event.

How many endpoints can I have?

One HTTPS endpoint per organization, configured from Settings → API. You can update the URL, rotate the secret, or delete the webhook.

Which plan includes webhooks?

Starter and Pro. Free includes API access if you would rather pull.

Do Linear events require a new webhook?

No. Existing organization webhooks also send the Linear link events once you use the Linear integration.

Is there an API and CLI as well?

Yes. Webhooks push. The API and CLI pull and write. MCP is for agents. See Developers in the footer.

Webhooks

Webhooks that push feedback events into your own backend

When a vote lands or a Linear issue is linked, your own systems may need to know. Boarbs webhooks send signed HTTPS events to one endpoint you configure on Settings → API.

The problem

Polling the API is how integrations go stale

A nightly sync misses the moment a customer voted. A Zapier-only setup is hard to test and harder to secure. You want events, a secret, and a payload you can verify.

Cron jobs miss the interesting moment

Status changes and votes are bursts. If you poll every hour, Slack alerts and internal dashboards lag.

Unsigned callbacks get spoofed

A public POST URL without a signature is an invitation. You need a secret you can rotate and a documented scheme.

Webhooks that only fire on “new post”

Comments, votes, status, and Linear links are the events automation actually needs. A create-only hook is not enough.

How Boarbs solves it

One endpoint. A signing secret. The events teams automate on.

Starter and Pro organizations configure one HTTPS endpoint. An admin receives the signing secret once, can rotate it, and can remove the webhook. Payloads cover posts, comments, votes, status, and Linear link lifecycle.

Posts, comments, votes, status, Linear

Events include post.created, comment.created, post.status_changed, vote.created, vote.deleted, plus linear.linked, linear.status_changed, and linear.unlinked.

Signed payloads and a rotatable secret

Store the secret before you close the dialog. Rotate it later without inventing a new endpoint. Verify signatures in your backend.

Configured next to API keys

Settings → API is where endpoint URL, secret, and keys live. Developers should not hunt through five settings screens.

Linear-aware

When you use the Linear integration, existing webhooks also send link and status events with issue id, identifier, url, and status.

Starter and Pro

Webhooks are on Starter ($19/mo) and Pro. Free still has API access for pulls. Upgrade when you want pushes.
