Webhook filters let you receive webhook events whenever a podcast contains data you care about, rather than receiving an event for every new podcast and episode.

Whenever new podcast data is released, we check to see if it matches any of the regex patterns you’ve set up and only send you the events that match your criteria.

Use-cases for Webhook Filters

• Brand monitoring - Get notified when your company or product is mentioned on a new episode. Set up a filter with regex like \byour-brand\b.
• Sales intelligence - Track when prospects or competitors appear on podcasts. Combine this with our transcript API to extract context that can be used in lead scoring.
• Industry research — Monitor keywords or key executives in your industry. For example, a filter with regex like \b(FDA approval|clinical trial|drug recall|Phase [1-3]|NDA filing)\b keeps you on top of latest pharma trends.

Add a Webhook Filter

Once you've set up a Taddy API webhook endpoint, you can add one or more webhook filters. Click on ‘Add Filter’.

Then, set up your filter by:

1. Selecting a filter type (e.g., podcastepisode.created).
2. Adding a regex expression

In the example below I’ve set up a filter to only receive webhook events when a new episode’s description contains “zune” or “iPod”.

Regex Examples

Notes:

• Regex uses case insensitive matching (iPod and ipod are equivalent)
• Regex is matched anywhere in the value: apple also matches "pineapple". Use \bapple\bto match the whole word.
• We block regex patterns containing * , but not + . Use .+ instead as a wildcard to match unknown text.
