Using Webhook
The Webhook tool posts events to an external system of your choice.Available variables:

- %{object}: Class name of the related object in the event.
- %{space}: Space in which the event happened
- %{action}: The action that triggered the event.
- %{title}: title of a message, wiki page, or name of uploaded file, ...
- %{link}: link to the event in Assembla
Note on the POST method together with application/x-www-form-urlencoded. You must specify variables (in the content field), like with GET. For example:
space=%{space}&title=%{title}&author=%{author}
Example:

when a message event occurs.
Authentication:
We only support basic authentication for now. You can give webhook the username and password required by the external system through the external url.http://your_username:your_password@link_to_the_external_system_API
In some pre-configured posts, you just need to replace "username", and "password" in the url by your information.
For example: http://username:password@twitter.com/statuses/update.xml
