# OpenAPI Webhooks

There are cases where you want to tell your API **users** that your app could call *their* app (sending a request) with some data, normally to **notify** of some type of **event**.

This means that instead of the normal process of your users sending requests to your API, it's **your API** (or your app) that could **send requests to their system** (to their API, their app).

This is normally called a **webhook**.

## Webhooks steps

            data = websocket.receive_text()
            assert data == "Session cookie or query token value is: some-token"
            data = websocket.receive_text()

#### The time to answer helps the attackers

At that point, by noticing that the server took some microseconds longer to send the "Incorrect username or password" response, the attackers will know that they got _something_ right, some of the initial letters were right.

# The demo profile enables a variety of things to try out Istio in non-production environments.
# * Lower resource utilization.
# * Some additional features are enabled by default; especially ones used in some tasks in istio.io.
# * More ports enabled on the ingress, which is used in some tasks.
