Currently, integrating external automation systems with Seqera Platform requires repeatedly polling API endpoints to detect workflow status changes - an inefficient pattern that adds latency, increases API load, and complicates integration logic.
Adding outbound webhook support to Actions would allow users to configure HTTP callbacks triggered on workflow events (e.g., completion, failure, state transitions), enabling push-based architectures.
This would dramatically simplify building automation on top of Platform, whether for alerting, triggering downstream processes, updating external dashboards, or orchestrating multi-step pipelines across systems.
Webhooks are a standard integration primitive that would make Platform a better citizen in modern event-driven automation ecosystems.
