Hi @Sathish

If I understand you correctly, and you want to change the “webhook” endpoint, you probably need to update the N8N_ENDPOINT_WEBHOOK environment variable.

Please read the documentation Endpoints environment variables | n8n Docs carefully and choose the appropriate environment variable for your needs.

Hi @mohamed3nan actually i have changed the url by using using following code
$env:WEBHOOK_URL=‘http://localhost:5678’; npx n8n@latest
after updated the default webhook_url changed but in the suffix /webhook/ is adding by the default , i dont need that /webhook/ , can get my point ?

Please read the link, I think this is what you need to change

please see this image by default /webhook/ its adding after my url right ?

[mohamed3nan]

Yes, I see!

You can change this by editing the environment variable mentioned in the docs.

But as far as I know, you can’t remove it completely, logically, how would the system distinguish between production/test webhooks and other routes?

In this case, I think using a reverse proxy would be the way to go.
