You can set up a webhook from the RazorPay dashboard in Settings. You can read more about webhooks in RazorPay here. This webhook will notify your ERPNext site whenever a new donation is created.

Donation Webhook

You will need the following details to set up the webhook.

Webhook URL: The following is the URL for your ERPNext site. This is the endpoint RazorPay will utilize to notify of any new donations created.
```
https:///api/method/erpnext.non_profit.doctype.donation.donation.capture_razorpay_donations
```
Secret: In order to secure your API endpoint, it is always better to generate and set a Webhook Secret for the API Endpoint. To do so, on your ERPNext site, you can click on the Donations > Generate Webhook Secret button in the Non Profit Settings. Copy the secret and paste it in the secret field on the RazorPay dashboard to set up webhooks.
Event: You have to enable the payment.captured event.
Active: Check this to enable the webhook.

With this, your webhook is activated.
