+Webhook
+~~~~~~~
+
+Webhook notification targets perform HTTP requests to a configurable URL.
+
+The following configuration options are available:
+
+* `url`: The URL to which to perform the HTTP requests. 
+Supports templating to inject message contents, metadata and secrets.
+* `method`: HTTP Method to use (POST/PUT/GET)
+* `header`: Array of HTTP headers that should be set for the request.
+Supports templating to inject message contents, metadata and secrets.
+* `body`: HTTP body that should be sent.
+Supports templating to inject message contents, metadata and secrets.
+* `secret`: Array of secret key-value pairs. These will be stored in
+a protected configuration file only readable by root. Secrets can be
+accessed in body/header/URL templates via the `secrets` namespace.
+* `comment`: Comment for this target.
+
+For configuration options that support templating, the
+https://handlebarsjs.com/[Handlebars] syntax can be used to
+access the following properties:
+
+* `{{ title }}`: The rendered notification title
+* `{{ message }}`: The rendered notification body
+* `{{ severity }}`: The severity of the notification (`info`, `notice`, 
+`warning`, `error`, `unknown`)
+* `{{ timestamp }}`: The notification's timestamp as a UNIX epoch (in seconds).
+* `{{ fields.<name> }}`: Sub-namespace for any metadata fields of the notification. 
+For instance, `fields.type` contains the notification type - for all available fields refer
+to xref:notification_events[Notification Events].
+* `{{ secrets.<name> }}`: Sub-namespace for secrets. For instance, a secret named `token`
+is accessible via `secrets.token`.
+
+For convenience, the following helpers are available:
+
+* `{{ url-encode <value/property> }}`: URL-encode a property/literal.
+* `{{ escape <value/property> }}`: Escape any control characters that cannot be
+safely represented as a JSON string.
+* `{{ json <value/property> }}`: Render a value as JSON. This can be useful to
+pass a whole sub-namespace (e.g. `fields`) as a part of a JSON payload
+(e.g. `{{ json fields }}`).
+
