  2. Enter or paste the Webhook URL you have saved.
  3. Click the Header tab, and then add a header with the following:
    • Key: API_KEY
    • Value: Enter the API Key you have saved.
  4. Click the Body tab, and then add the events to be pushed.
  5. Click Send to send your events to USM Anywhere. A confirmation message appears below. You may also open the Events page in USM Anywhere to verify that it has collected the events you have pushed.
    Note: Alternatively, the API_KEY can be used as a URL parameter.

​
Pushing a single event

Refer to the curl command below to push a single event.
curl --location '<base_url>/api/1.0/webhook/push' \ --header 'API_KEY: <api_key>' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data '{     "event": "value" }'
As a URL parameter: 
curl --location '<base_url>/api/1.0/webhook/push?API_KEY=<api_key>' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data '{     "event": "value" }'

​
Pushing multiple events

You can push up to a maximum of 10,000 events in one go using JSON format. Refer to the curl command below to push multiple events.
curl --location '<base_url>/api/1.0/webhook/push' \ --header 'API_KEY: <api_key>' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data '[ {         "event1": "event1 value" }, {      "event2": "event2 value" }, {      "event3": "event3 value" } ]'
Use the header “Content-Encoding: gzip” when sending a payload compressed as a gzip.
As a URL parameter: 
curl --location '<base_url>/api/1.0/webhook/push?API_KEY=<api_key>'  \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data '[ {         "event1": "event1 value" }, {      "event2": "event2 value" }, {      "event3": "event3 value" } ]'
Note: When the API_KEY is included in the URL and in the HTTP Headers, the API_KEY value checked will be the header value. The URL parameter value and the header value must be equals.
