What types of triggers are available when integrating Webhooks by Zapier with PDF.co?

When integrating Webhooks by Zapier with PDF.co, you can set up triggers such as 'Catch Hook', which allows you to capture data from any webhook-enabled service and use it immediately within your Zap.

How fast is data processed when sent through Webhooks by Zapier integrated with PDF.co?
