How this service works
Is the Strait of Hormuz open? Effectively no, it is closed to commercial shipping as of 13 July 2026. 34 ships transited vs ~88/day normal. Brent $81.10. Updated every 5 minutes.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing a unique webhook ID, the schema URL for the subscription, a signing secret for payload verification, an expiry timestamp (e.g. 2026-08-08T12:00:00Z), and the number of remaining deliveries (e.g. 100). The agent can use the secret to validate incoming webhook payloads and the expiry to know when to renew.
Example use cases
Automated oil market alert pipeline
“Register a Straits.live webhook to push me an alert whenever there's a change in the Strait of Hormuz open/closed verdict or the transit count — I want to wire it into my trading desk's Slack channel.”
Geopolitical risk dashboard integration
“I'm building a live risk dashboard — can you sign me up for all Hormuz crisis events on Straits.live so my backend gets pushed updates whenever the situation changes, and give me the webhook secret for verification?”
Logistics disruption early-warning system
“Set up a Straits.live webhook subscription for all Hormuz shipping events so our freight operations team gets automatic push notifications the moment transit conditions or the closure status shifts.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://straits.live/api/premium/webhooksWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need event-driven, push-based notifications about Strait of Hormuz shipping crisis changes rather than polling. It is ideal for automated pipelines, trading systems, or dashboards that must react immediately to changes in transit counts, open/closed verdicts, or oil price triggers without continuously calling the status API. Prefer this over polling endpoints when low latency reaction to state changes is critical and you want to minimize API call costs.
Side effects
- Invalid or missing 'events' filter string returns a 400 Bad Request

- Malformed webhook target URL causes registration failure
- Quota exhausted — deliveries remaining reaches 0 before expiry, stopping further notifications
- Webhook expires at expiresAt timestamp requiring re-registration
