npm install strapi-plugin-webhook-dashboardStrapi 5 usually discovers installed plugins automatically. To enable it explicitly:
export default () => ({
'webhook-dashboard': {
enabled: true,
},
});Rebuild the admin panel after installation:
npm run build
npm run develop- Open Strapi admin.
- Go to "Webhook Dashboard" from the left navigation.
- Add a button title and webhook URL.
- Save, then trigger the webhook from the admin homepage widget.
Webhook URLs must use http or https.
Headers can be entered as a JSON object or as one Name: Value pair per line.
Body is sent as the raw request body for the POST.
Buttons support optional grouping, descriptions, enable/disable state, confirmation prompts, custom headers, raw bodies, Bearer Token auth, and Basic Auth.
The plugin adds permissions under the Strapi admin roles page. Grant Read to show the left navigation page and widget, Trigger webhooks to fire buttons, Update settings to edit configuration, and Clear history to remove stored runs.
Each button can also be restricted to selected admin roles. Leave the role list empty to allow any admin role that already has Trigger webhooks; select one or more roles to make that button visible and triggerable only for those roles. The homepage widget uses a safe dashboard endpoint that does not expose webhook URLs, headers, request bodies, or auth secrets.
