Can you create a webhook using the Dropbox API?

Does the Dropbox API support POST'ing a webhook to create a new webhook on drives/folders/files? Looked through the documentation and couldn't find it.

Hi mergesandbox,

Creating your own webhooks with the Dropbox API is not a feature we currently offer. However, we do provide webhooks as part of our platform, which allow us to send POST requests to your server when certain events occur.

You can find detailed information about our webhooks and how to set them up in our webhooks documentation.
