Explanation

Webhooks are event-driven HTTP callbacks that automatically notify external systems when a specific event occurs - they push data to a predefined URL without polling. Informing a chat channel after a deployment fails (C) and sending a payment confirmation email (D) are classic webhook use cases because both are triggered by discrete events. The other options describe API request/response manipulation (A, E) or session management (B), which are unrelated to webhooks.
