AI Ability since v2.0.0

# enable\_webhook

Enable / disable a webhook — Enable (go live) or disable a webhook.

Enable (go live) or disable a webhook. Enabling requires confirmation. Registered as the WordPress Ability `flowsystems-webhook-actions/enable_webhook`, so external AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor) can call it over MCP or REST with a scoped API token.

/ Plan step shape

```
{ "ability": "enable_webhook", "input": { "id": …, "enabled": … } }
```

/ Scope & confirmation

Minimum API-token scope for external (MCP/REST) callers: `full`. This step always pauses for explicit user confirmation before it runs.

/ Input fields

| Name | In | Type | Req | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| id | param | integer | yes |  |
| enabled | param | boolean | — |  |

/ Examples

Plan step as the AI Builder proposes it

```
{
  "id": "step_1",
  "ability": "enable_webhook",
  "summary": "…",
  "input": {
    "id": 12,
    "enabled": true
  }
}
```
