Relay and forward files between HTTP endpoints
Receive files via HTTP and forward them to another HTTP endpoint automatically. DocEvent Channels buffers, retries, and reliably delivers every file — decoupling your upload endpoint from downstream processing.

How HTTP Upload to HTTP Webhook routing works
HTTP Upload
Files arrive via HTTP POST to a dedicated DocEvent channel endpoint.
DocEvent Channel
HTTP Webhook
Files are POSTed to any HTTP/HTTPS endpoint you configure as a webhook.
1
File arrives via HTTP Upload
REST endpoint accepts multipart/form-data file uploads with optional authentication headers.
2
Channel routes it
DocEvent's channel server matches the incoming file to your configured route, queues it for delivery, and ensures no file is ever lost — even during downstream outages.
3
Delivered to HTTP Webhook
Multipart POST with configurable headers. Automatic retry on failure. Supports TLS.
Common use cases
Real workflows that teams automate with a HTTP Upload → HTTP Webhook channel.
- Fan out uploaded files to multiple downstream HTTP services
- Forward files from one API endpoint to another reliably
- Buffer and retry HTTP file deliveries with guaranteed delivery
- Decouple file upload from downstream processing via HTTP relay
The two ends don't have to be the same company — invite a customer or trading partner into the channel and they run the HTTP Upload or HTTP Webhook side under their own account, with their own credentials. Learn how shared channels work.
