  },
  output_destination: "cms_draft_folder"
};

await researcher.templates.integrate(cmsIntegration);

Webhook Integration¶

Receive notifications when template-based research is complete:

// Setup webhook for research completion
await researcher.webhooks.create({
  event: "template_research_completed",
  template_id: "market_research_enterprise",
  url: "https://your-app.com/webhooks/research-complete",
  secret: "your-webhook-secret"
});
