How It Works
Three simple steps to start receiving data from any external service into Odoo.
- Step 1 — Create an Endpoint: Choose a target Odoo model (Contacts, Sale Orders, Invoices, or any custom model). A unique, secure URL is generated automatically.
- Step 2 — Map Fields & Set Auth: Map incoming JSON keys to Odoo fields visually. Configure authentication (HMAC, Bearer Token, or IP whitelist) to secure your endpoint.
- Step 3 — Activate & Share the URL: Activate the endpoint and paste the URL into your external service's webhook settings. Incoming data flows into Odoo automatically.
See It In Action
Configure your endpoint â set the target model, operation, match fields, and authentication â all from a single clean form.
Key Features
Everything you need to receive, authenticate, and process inbound webhooks from any external system.
Secure Endpoints
Each endpoint gets a unique UUID-based URL that is unguessable. No public listing, no sequential IDs — only someone with the exact URL can send data to your endpoint.
Multi-Layer Authentication
Verify requests with HMAC signatures (SHA-1/256/512), Bearer Tokens, or IP Whitelisting (with CIDR support). Compatible with GitHub, Shopify, and custom providers out of the box.
Visual Field Mapper
Map incoming JSON keys to Odoo fields with a no-code visual interface. Supports dot-notation for nested values (e.g., data.object.email) and automatic data type conversion.
Flexible CRUD Operations
- Create — Always create a new record
- Update — Find & update by match fields
- Upsert — Create if not found, update if exists
- Custom — Handle everything in your script
Many2one Auto-Resolution
Automatically resolve related records from incoming data. For example, map an incoming email to partner_id by searching for the matching contact.
2-Tier Script Engine
Response: Shape the HTTP response and run side effects after CRUD.
Execute: Full custom logic — replaces the entire pipeline when you need total control.
Comprehensive Logging
Every incoming request is logged with the raw payload, headers (masked), source IP, auth result, mapped values, processing time, and linked record. Filter by status, date, or endpoint.
Log Replay
Made a mapping mistake? Fix your field mappings or scripts and re-process the stored payload with one click. No need to ask the sender to resend the data.
Built-in Test Wizard
Test your endpoint locally with a sample JSON payload — no external HTTP request needed. Runs the complete pipeline (field mapping, CRUD, response scripts) with authentication skipped, and creates a real log entry for every test run.
Authentication Examples
Configure each endpoint's authentication from the Authentication tab. Examples below show how to set up each method.
None
No authentication â open endpoint. Suitable for internal use or when IP whitelisting is enough.
nx_auth_type = none
POST /nx/webhook/receive/<token>
Content-Type: application/json
{"name": "John", "email": "john@example.com"}
Bearer Token
Set a static secret token. The sender must include it in the Authorization header.
nx_auth_type = token nx_auth_token = mysecrettoken123 Authorization: Bearer mysecrettoken123
HMAC — GitHub / Shopify Style
HMAC-SHA256 over the raw body. Signature is prefixed with sha256= and sent in a custom header.
nx_auth_type = hmac nx_hmac_secret = myhmackey nx_hmac_header = X-Hub-Signature-256 nx_hmac_algorithm = sha256 nx_hmac_prefix = sha256= X-Hub-Signature-256: sha256=<hex_digest>
HMAC — Custom Prefix Style
HMAC over the raw body with a custom header name and prefix. Works with any service that sends prefix=hex.
nx_auth_type = hmac nx_hmac_secret = whsec_testkey nx_hmac_header = Stripe-Signature nx_hmac_algorithm = sha256 nx_hmac_prefix = v1= Stripe-Signature: v1=<hex_digest>
Real-World Use Cases
See how businesses use the Webhook Receiver to bring external data into Odoo automatically.
Receive Stripe webhook events (payment_intent.succeeded, charge.refunded) to automatically create payment records or update invoice status in Odoo. Use the pre-process script to handle Stripe's custom signature format.
Sync new Shopify orders directly into Odoo as sale orders — including automatic customer creation and product matching via upsert logic.
Receive push events, issue creation, or PR merge notifications. Auto-create project tasks, log deployments, or update internal tracking records.
Connect Typeform, JotForm, Google Forms (via Zapier), or any web form to Odoo. Auto-create leads, contacts, or support tickets from form submissions.
Receive JSON payloads from IoT devices, environmental sensors, or industrial equipment. Log readings as Odoo records for monitoring and reporting.
Let partners push data into Odoo — inventory updates, price changes, or order confirmations — through a secure, authenticated endpoint.
Processing Pipeline
Every incoming request goes through a secure, multi-step pipeline. Two paths are available depending on your needs.
Common Steps (always run)
- 1. Token Lookup — The UUID token in the URL is matched to an active endpoint configuration.
- 2. Security Checks — IP whitelist verification, payload size validation (max 1 MB), and JSON parsing.
- 3. Authentication — HMAC signature verification or Bearer Token check (with constant-time comparison).
Path A — Standard Pipeline
- 4. Field mapping converts JSON to Odoo field values
- 5. CRUD operation creates, updates, or upserts the record
- 6. Response script shapes the HTTP reply and runs side effects
- 7. Full request is logged with the linked record
Path B — Execute Script
When the operation is set to Custom, the Execute Script replaces the entire standard pipeline (steps 4–7).
Your script receives the payload and Odoo environment, performs any custom logic, and sets the HTTP response body and status code directly. The request is still logged.
Ideal for complex integrations that don't fit the standard field-mapping pattern.

Why Choose Webhook Receiver?
No Coding Required
Create endpoints, map fields, and set authentication entirely from the Odoo UI. No custom controllers, no Python modules to write, no deployment needed. Optional scripts available when you need more control.
Enterprise-Grade Security
UUID tokens, HMAC signature verification with constant-time comparison, IP whitelisting with CIDR support, and role-based access control. Your endpoints are locked down.
Smart Record Handling
Upsert logic finds existing records by match fields and updates them, or creates new ones. Many2one auto-resolution links related records automatically. No duplicate data.
Full Audit Trail
Every request is logged with the raw payload, auth result, mapped values, and linked record. Replay failed requests after fixing your configuration.
Works With Any Service
Stripe, Shopify, GitHub, GitLab, Typeform, Zapier, Make, n8n, or your own custom systems — any service that can send an HTTP POST with JSON works.
Built for Odoo 19
Written from the ground up for Odoo 19 with modern ORM patterns, proper access control, and clean, upgrade-safe code.
Companion Module
Webhook Engine
Need to send webhooks from Odoo too? The Engine module monitors any Odoo model and sends HTTP requests to external services with queue-based delivery, retry logic, field mapping, and an analytics dashboard. Pair it with the Receiver for full bidirectional webhook support.
Requires Webhook Base (included with this module)
