Webhook

Logging forward with a webhook can be a useful practice in various scenarios, particularly when you need to integrate different systems or services in real-time. Webhooks can enable real-time data transfer, are ideal for an event-driven architecture or centralized logging, as well as support automation and integration with other third-party services.
