I’m new to Square and webhooks. I created a webhook to send over to Airtable - the test works fine, even in Production mode.

The subscription is invoice.published. When I create (publish) a new invoice manually in my square account, the webhook doesn’t fire. Is this because the invoices have to be created through the API?

A webhook event should fire when an invoice is created in the Dashboard. Whats the `invoice_id` that didn’t trigger the event and your application ID. 🙂
