Configure KingswaySoft Integration Gateway as an HTTP Server
KingswaySoft Integration Gateway works like an HTTP server that listens to incoming webhook calls by publishing the received HTTP messages to a message queue or a file in the local file system. So the first thing you need to do is to create the HTTP configuration that works with the webhook interfaces that you might be connecting to.
You would start with the HTTP Server page in order to set up such an HTTP webhook listener.
