Webhooks on the AI Horde
Today I am excited to announce that I have deployed a new feature which allows you to specify a webhook when requesting a generation on the AI Horde. If you do that, once each generation is completed on the AI Horde, it will send POST request to the specified url, with a payload matching the request type.
Apropos, it’s a good time to announce I have started writing some integration information for the AI Horde, which contains information about the available API, and SDKs, and of course, the new webhooks. Feel free to send PRs to improve it!
This new functionality can allow a few more efficient ways of using the AI Horde. For example you could avoid polling the AI Horde every second or so, and rely on webhooks, and only do a manual poll every 30 seconds or so, if the requests have not webhooked over to you yet. The AI Horde will retry a webhook 3 times before giving up, so in case of network issues etc, you can always check the status manually as usual. This approach would reduce the load on the AI horde, while at the same time giving you faster results. It’s what I call a win-win!
Of course, not all clients can support webhooks, so for those who can’t, the existing functionality will continue working as usual.
