Webhooks can be created in two ways:
Zephyr automatically creates a pre-configured webhook automatically when you are mapping a project in Zephyr. In this case, there is no need to perform any additional actions, but you need to have a Jira account with special permissions (for example, Browse Projects). You can view the created webhook in Jira settings: go to ⚙ > System (under Jira Settings) > Webhooks (under Advanced).
Don’t delete this webhook , and don’t or change its properties. It has all the needed settings enabled. Later, you can update the webhook , if needed.
You, as an administrator, can create and manage webhooks manually. This can be useful if you do not have (or do not want to create) a Jira service account with permissions required for automatic webhook management.
