# Request for Evidence Webhook

The Request for Evidence Webhook notifies merchants—via a Forter‑signed webhook—when we recommend uploading evidence for a specific claim, including **which evidence types** to send.

It is to be coupled with our [Evidence API](https://docs.forter.com/evidence-api "Evidence API") to provide the evidence Forter is requesting.

## [Notification Types](https://docs.forter.com/request-for-evidence-webhook#notification-types) Notification Types

_There are two notification types when subscribing to the webhook:_

1. **Request for Evidence -** Informs merchants on all actionable claims that require evidence, with indication of which evidence type is required.
2. **Evidence Reminder -** Provides merchants with a reminder request for evidence when there are 5 days (120 hours) left before the claim due date and the recommendation status remains “Pending Evidence”.

## [Key Webhook Fields](https://docs.forter.com/request-for-evidence-webhook#key-webhook-fields) Key Webhook Fields

Each request for evidence will be associated with a corresponding claim, so you know which evidence is required for which representment. Forter will provide the requested evidence and the key identifiers below to enable seamless automation within your system.
