πŸͺNewsly Pro - Webhooks

Expand Newsly with an infinite number of news sources, or bring your own News!

Newsly Pro adds Webhook capability to your News, by giving you a special URL you can give to other services, you can add News from any source that supports sending data this way!

Webhooks can send information instantly from one platform to another, and we use this to injest even more News. No longer are you limited to just the News sources we've integrated, you can bring your own.

You can now send webhooks from anywhere on the web to your Newsly account and have it show up in your news feed, along with long/short buttons for the relevant tickers! Tech savvy users can use webhooks as you wish, giving you unlimited potential in terms of creating your own feed.

Some use case examples:

  1. Custom Algo Signals (Bring your own News)

If you have an exciting webhooks idea why not share it with our community? You can find our telegram here or submit feedback directly.

We recommend creating a separate profile for your Webhooks so that they don't get lost in the noise. You can then set separate notification settings for your Webhook profile! You can find our profiles guide here.


Setup a TradingView alert

Step 1:

First navigate to Filters > Profiles and select your desired profile that you want the Webhook alerts in. Navigate to the 'Webhook' section under Profile Filters > News Sources > Webhooks.

Step 2:

Click "TradingView", "Add Webhook" and then name your Webhook. This will generate a custom URL for this specific webhook.

Don't share this URL with other users, as they will be able to send you Newsly notifications you did not request!

Step 3:

Copy this URL and paste it in your TradingView Alert under the notification for your custom alert

Step 4:

Enable your webhook on your profile.

You're all done! The next time the alert triggers on TradingView, you'll be alerted within the Profile you have Enabled your Webhook for!

If you don't get webhooks coming to your bot, check your have Enabled your webhook (Button should read πŸ”΄ Disable when the Webhook is Enabled).

To recap, here are the steps again:
