## Prerequisites
- A webhook DotMock workspace
- The workspace ID in $API_ID
- A reachable listener URL only when testing live delivery

## In this guide
- Create an event definition
- Render before delivery
- Connect a local listener
- Trigger and inspect a delivery
- Fire an event after a REST response
- Exercise retries and idempotency

## Verified boundaries
- Render and dry-run paths never deliver. Delivery attempts and retries are observable separately from the selected REST response.
