Enabling webhooks for audience specific page

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to configure a StatusPage page with type Audience-specific page to send webhooks according to incident or maintenance updates on specific components.

I have successfully configured such webhooks for a Private page: I receive the webhooks, everything is fine.

But as soon as I change the page type to Audience-specific page the Subscribers menu from the left disappear and is replaced by the Audience menu. Even if I activate webhooks from the Audience -> Subscriber settings configuration panel, the menu do not appear.

Did I miss something regarding webhooks?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Ok, I finally found out a working workflow, but I am not sure this is the most appropriate.

With page type as Audience-specific, you need to:

* add a user (Audience > Users > Add User),
* set the subscription settings (Audience > Subscriber settings) and check "Allow users to be auto-subscribed to every incident",
* then go to the actual StatusPage (View status page),
* hit Subscribe to Updates,
* Enter your webhooks settings

So the difference is that rather declaring a webhooks directly, one need to create an account and perform additional actions. Not sure this is really relevant.

May I miss an easier / cleaner way?
