So I have a webhook server that lets me know when a PayPal invoice has been paid.
And I have a dynamic route (/transaction/{id})
I want to immediately change my frontend when this invoice gets paid on the correlating id.
Rn I have a use state that checks for transaction status changes in mongodb.
So since the webhook runs on a route handler, I’m able to update the transactions state in mongodb, but Im not able to let the frontend use effect know that it’s been updating.
I don’t really want to poll as I want this flow to be as instant as possible, the user pays invoice in PayPal, frontend changes.
How could I do this?
