Webhook API
ErrLog.IO supports manual submission of errors via a Webhook. This can be used from a variety of languages, with example usage below.
Overview
To use this API, simply create a JSON object and send it via a POST to our our Webhook endpoint.
All objects (apart from your apikey) are dynamically typed, meaning you can include objects of any type, and from any language or platform, without having to specifically provide a strongly typed value.
