Blockchain.info callback URL not being called? 10mBTC for right answer

[m19]

Hi guys,

I want to make use of the HTTP Callbacks as listed here

In my wallet under Notifications > HTTP Notifications I have setup my URL like this: http://www.mywebsite.com/callback?secret=mysecret

But whenever I send Bitcoin to an address in that wallet, that URL is never being called. Any ideas why?

10mBTC for the right answer.

You have to set up a forward address in the "Developers" -> "Receive Payments API" section of Blochkchain.info.

https://blockchain.info/api/api_receive

By doing that, you provide them with an URL to be called every time a payment is received. Data arrives via $_GET

A good example to start:

note: do not send any amount lower than 0.001, otherwise it will not execute it...
