## Common questions

### Which file format can I use to define Webhook hooks?

You can use JSON or YAML configuration files. A hooks.json file contains an array of the hooks Webhook serves.

### How do I pass request data to the command that Webhook runs?

Webhook parses headers, payload, and query variables and can pass the specified arguments to the command via command line arguments or environment variables.

### How can I require conditions before a hook triggers?

You can specify rules in the configuration, and the hook runs only when those rules are satisfied.

### Can I install Webhook without building from source?

Yes, prebuilt binaries are available for different architectures. You can also install it from Snap or package managers for Ubuntu, Debian, and FreeBSD.
