What Happens if My Webhook Is Down

Postmen sent the events for each webhook URL with POST request.

If the webhook URL doesn't return a 200 HTTP response code, that POST request will be re-attempted up to 14 times in increasing intervals: 2^number_of_fail x 30s 
e.g.

If the attempt fail, Postmen will retry the 2nd attempt 30s later.
If the 5th attempts fail, Postmen retry the 6th attempt 960s later
If the 14th attempts fail, Postmen retry not send out that webhook any more.
