About the Events API

The Events API is a set of webhooks that communicate events that happen in the Galileo system. You can use the Events API to get messages that are triggered by events like authorizations, settlements, adjustments, ACH returns, bill pay, changes to a customer’s account, and more. Events API webhooks are automated, and each event is triggered by specific processes.

Sections in this guide:

• Events API Scenarios — Examples from each category of Events API webhooks.
• Events Setup and Configuration — Considerations and decisions to make when configuring your products and system for events.
• Event Testing and Triggers — Information about testing events, events that are triggered by automated processes, and events that are triggered by the CST.
