Short answer

How can I manage my webhook endpoints via chat?

You can tell your AI to pause or activate specific endpoints to control the flow of your delivery pipeline. This allows you to stop incoming traffic or resume it without touching a dashboard. You'll see exactly how the AI handles these state changes below.

Where every change lands.

Control your pipeline state.

Your AI acts as the remote control for your webhook configuration.

ACTIVE

Resumed traffic

The AI uses the activation tool to turn an endpoint back on. Your delivery pipeline starts receiving data again immediately.

PAUSED

Stopped traffic

When you tell your agent to stop an endpoint, it pauses the connection. This prevents incoming webhooks from hitting your system during maintenance or outages.

UPDATED

Modified settings

Your AI can change the configuration of an existing endpoint. This lets you adjust how your pipeline behaves through a simple conversation.

MANUAL

Human oversight

The AI can list all your endpoints so you can see what's running. You decide when a critical endpoint needs to be deleted or manually inspected.

The workflow

What your AI does when you request a change.

The AI translates your intent into specific API calls to Convoy.

  1. Identify the target

    The AI looks through your current setup to find the specific endpoint you mentioned.

    list_endpointsget_endpoint

  2. Change the state

    Once identified, the AI toggles the endpoint between active and paused states based on your command.

    pause_endpointactivate_endpoint

  3. Adjust configuration

    If you need to change how an endpoint works, the AI modifies its settings.

    update_endpoint

  4. Clean up

    The AI removes endpoints that are no longer needed from your list.

    delete_endpoint

FAQ

How the control works

  • 01

    Can the AI delete endpoints on its own?

    No. The AI only deletes an endpoint if you explicitly tell it to do so.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my webhook URLs without permission?

    No. The AI only performs updates when you provide a specific instruction to change a setting.

  • 03

    Can I see which endpoints are currently active?

    Yes. You can ask your AI to list your endpoints to see their current status.

  • 04

    Does the AI handle the actual data being sent through the webhook?

    No. This MCP only manages the state and configuration of the endpoints, not the payload data itself.

  • 05

    Can the AI create new endpoints?

    No. The available tools are limited to listing, getting, updating, pausing, activating, and deleting existing endpoints.
