Video Guide: Scenario Triggers: Scheduled vs Event-Based (Webhook) 

To trigger an instant trigger (Custom webhook module) in your scenario when an event occurs in an external web service (that offers webhook functionality), follow these steps:

1. Add the Webhooks > Custom webhook endpoint module to your scenario

2. Create the webhook in the desired web service

3. Specify events that trigger events to be sent by the web service to the Custom webhook module in your Fuse scenario

4. Run the scenario and waiting until the event that triggers the module occurs
