Hello,

Is it possible providing the App Install Webhook?

We can only be notified when user installs our app first time by checking if there is record existed in our database.

We would like to be notified that EVERY TIME when user installs our app through webhook. The installation history is the same as the records showed in app history in the partner console.

I have searched for a while but can't find any other ways to precisely collect this information.

Can any one help & give a support?

Many thanks!

Hey there, unfortunately not, there is an app/uninstall webhook, but not an app/install webhook

Thank you for the reply!

We finally checked if user has uninstalled app by using the app/uninstall webhook. Once the user is remarked as uninstalled, we will have enough information to know when does user come back (reinstall) next time.
