Add your Endpoint

Webhook Endpoints

Endpoint URL is required (determined in Step 1 above).
Description is optional.
Enable notification.transactionUpdated (mandatory for Buy transactions).
The other two notifications are for Sell transactions. They will be implemented later, but enable them all now to avoid problems down the road.

Rules for incoming & outgoing transfers

Navigate to NOTABENE > RULES > OUTBOUND

Choose:

Automatically accept all outgoing transfers will approve and send all transfers automatically to the counterparty VASP.
- Alternate CLI method: set automaticallyApproveOutgoingTransfers=true in /batm/config/notabene
Manually review all outgoing transfers forces manual approval for all transfers.
- When set to manual, approval must be granted within 60 seconds -or- the BATM will timeout and the transaction will automatically fail!
