Mailjet Webhook Not Triggering

The webhook URL is not publicly accessible or is incorrectly configured.

Understanding Mailjet: An Overview

Mailjet is a powerful Email Communication API provider that enables businesses to send, receive, and track emails effortlessly. It offers a range of features including transactional emails, marketing campaigns, and advanced analytics. One of its key functionalities is the ability to set up webhooks, which allow real-time notifications about email events.

Identifying the Symptom: Webhook Not Triggering

When using Mailjet, you might encounter an issue where the webhook is not triggering as expected. This can manifest as a lack of notifications for email events such as opens, clicks, or bounces, despite having configured the webhook in your Mailjet account.

Exploring the Issue: MJ-018

The error code MJ-018 indicates a problem with the webhook not triggering. This typically occurs when the webhook URL is either not publicly accessible or is incorrectly configured in the Mailjet dashboard. Ensuring that your webhook is set up correctly is crucial for receiving real-time email event notifications.

Steps to Fix the Webhook Triggering Issue

Step 1: Verify Webhook URL Accessibility

First, ensure that the webhook URL you have configured is publicly accessible. You can use tools like YouGetSignal to check if your URL is reachable from the internet.

Step 2: Check Webhook Configuration in Mailjet

Log into your Mailjet account and navigate to the Settings section. Under Event Tracking, verify that the webhook URL is correctly entered. Ensure that the URL is complete and includes the correct protocol (http or https).

Step 3: Test the Webhook

Use a tool like Webhook.site to test your webhook. Replace your current webhook URL with the one provided by Webhook.site and send a test event from Mailjet to see if it triggers correctly.

Step 4: Review Server Logs

If the webhook is still not triggering, check your server logs for any incoming requests from Mailjet. This can help identify if the requests are being blocked or if there are any errors in processing them.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the MJ-018 issue and ensure that your Mailjet webhooks are triggering correctly. For further assistance, refer to the Mailjet Webhooks Guide for more detailed information on setting up and troubleshooting webhooks.
