Getting Started with httpied

Welcome to httpied! This guide will walk you through the basics of setting up and using our platform for your webhook and callback needs.

What is httpied?

httpied is a fully-managed webhook orchestration platform designed for modern applications. It allows you to schedule tasks, manage callbacks, and scale your asynchronous operations without worrying about infrastructure.

Setting Up Your Account

Getting started with httpied is simple:

  1. Sign up for an account on our homepage
  2. Verify your email address
  3. Log in to your dashboard

Creating Your First Task

Once you're logged in, you can create your first task:

// Example API request to create a task
const response = await fetch('https://api.httpied.com/tasks', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    url: 'https://your-api.com/webhook',
    scheduled_for: '2025-05-10T15:00:00Z',
    payload: {
      action: 'process_data',
      user_id: 12345
    }
  })
});

const task = await response.json();
console.log('Task created:', task.id);
```javascript

## Scheduling Recurring Tasks

httpied makes it easy to schedule recurring tasks using cron expressions:

// Example of scheduling a recurring task const recurringTask = await fetch('https://api.httpied.com/tasks', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' }, body: JSON.stringify({ url: 'https://your-api.com/webhook', schedule: '0 9 * * 1-5', // Run at 9 AM on weekdays payload: { action: 'generate_report' } }) }); ``
