    I would say you need at least Asset Admin level access.

    But about webhooks I might be able to save you some time, 1. you need a webhook server that allows custom responses (this is because SS expect an specific non-standard response)

    2. Zapier doesn't work because at the moment doesn't support custom responses

    3. if you manage to get the webhook to work, it will report "all actions" there is no custom webhook for an specific action, for instance, if you need a webhook when a row is created, SS will send a message for every single action taken on the sheet and you will have to filter those messages to only pick the ones you need.

    My take is that webhook feature was released as experimental and never refined.
