Notifications and Webhooks

RankDebug tells you about things in three ways: notifications in the dashboard, emails, and webhooks to your own endpoints. The first two are personal settings; webhooks belong to the workspace.

Notifications and email

Settings → Notifications lists each kind of event with a switch for the dashboard and, where it applies, for email:

• Agent: the agent finished something you asked for.
• Support: a reply or status change on one of your tickets.
• Site Health: a site check or crawl found something that got worse.
• Reports: a report was shared with your workspace, or someone replied to your comment.
• Connections: an SEO tool export you uploaded is out of date.
• Site Digest: your scheduled digest.

There is also a switch to mute dashboard notifications altogether. Security, billing and account email always arrives, whatever you choose.

Email digests

The digest is a short email per workspace with search clicks and impressions against the period before and the pages and queries that moved most, the open findings from the latest site check and which of them are new, the deploys in the period, and any connection that stopped syncing.

It goes out around 8 in the morning in the workspace's timezone, weekly on Monday by default or daily if you choose. Set the frequency under Email Digests in Settings → Notifications. Each person picks their own, per workspace.

Webhooks

A webhook sends an event to an HTTPS endpoint of yours when something happens in the workspace, signed so you can verify it came from RankDebug. Two events exist today, site_check.regression and site_crawl.regression, both sent when a high-severity problem appears that was not there before.

Manage webhooks on the Webhooks page or through the API. The webhooks section covers the events, the payload, signature verification and retries.
