Amplitude Webhooks and Cohort Sync

The Webhooks Streaming destination forwards Amplitude event and user payloads to a customer-configured HTTPS endpoint, and the Cohort Sync family of destinations pushes cohort membership changes to downstream tools such as Iterable, Braze, MoEngage, Customer.io, Intercom, HubSpot, Google Ads, Bing Ads, Google Pub/Sub, Amazon Kinesis, and Amazon S3. Sync types include on-demand, automated (hourly or daily), and real-time (per-minute) modes. This AsyncAPI document models the subscriber-side HTTP contract for Webhooks Streaming and the generic cohort membership change shape; vendor-specific cohort sync destinations conform to each downstream tool's own API contract.

Amplitude Webhooks and Cohort Sync is one of 29 APIs that Amplitude publishes on the APIs.io network, described by an AsyncAPI event-driven specification.

Tagged areas include Cohort Sync, Destinations, Event, Streaming, and Webhook. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an AsyncAPI specification.

This event API exposes 2 operations across 2 channels, and defines 6 schemas. It is described by AsyncAPI 2.6.0, at version 1.0.0.

The API connects through a single server, {webhookUrl} (https).

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Amplitude Webhooks and Cohort Sync, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
