Webhooks distribution allows users to share scheduled publications, alerts, and subscriptions with others via a Webhook channel When configuring Webhook distribution for publications and advanced alerts, you can edit existing channels and add new channels via the Channels dialog.
Note: This feature is only available with the Enterprise Edition license.
Important: The Channels tab is only available for selection by subscribers where the Normal option has been selected in the administrative settings for subscribe.
