After you register for a callback, you may want to test to make sure your endpoint is correctly receiving the callbacks as intended. Rather than waiting for the trigger to occur, you can create a test trigger using the POST call to the above. If working correctly, your system will receive a test callback from Vibes.

How It Works

When using this POST method, you are essentially creating a fake trigger that will activate your registered callback. The callback your endpoint receives should be used only to indicate that your system is receiving callbacks as intended.

Depending on the callback_type, you will need to pass along certain required elements to properly test the callback. For example, to test an acquisition campaign callback, you will need to give the system of the acquisition campaign that you registered to receive callbacks for. The requirements vary; see the below chart for more information.

You can also pass along optional data that will override the default values of the callback. Note that this data is dummy information for the purposes of testing only; it will not affect your existing account data.

Response

An HTTP 201 - CREATED will be returned if the callback was queued for send.
An HTTP 404 - NOT FOUND error will be returned if an active callback does not exist.

Returned Callback

If all is working correctly, your callback endpoint will receive a callback. It should contain the event_id returned in the response to the test request and any dummy information you provided.
