You can specify the URL / endpoint / callback you want to be notified with that callback after completion of some task.

It is also called Callback URL

For example, your system may call the third-party API, and in this call specify a Callback for when an event occurs, your URL will be called:

POST /api.example.com/foo?callbackURL=http://my.server.com/bar
