# [Set Up Your Project] - Enable or Disable a Webhook

This page explains how to enable or disable a webhook in Contentstack. It is intended for developers or stack administrators who manage webhook behavior and need to turn webhook triggers on or off for a specific stack.

## Enable or Disable a Webhook

Contentstack allows you to enable and disable a [webhook](/docs/developers/set-up-webhooks/about-webhooks) as per your requirements.

To enable or disable a webhook, log in to your [Contentstack account](https://www.contentstack.com/login), go to your [stack](/docs/developers/set-up-stack/about-stack) and perform the following steps:
- Click the “Settings” icon on the left navigation panel, and select **Webhooks**. This will display a list of your existing webhooks. You can also use the shortcut keys “alt + W” for Windows OS users, and “option + W” for Mac OS users to access webhooks.
- Click the vertical ellipses in the **Actions** column for the webhook you want to enable/disable, then select the **Enable**/**Disable** option.
- Alternatively, to enable or disable the webhook via the webhook page, use the **Enable Webhook** toggle.
- Click **Save**.
