Hey,
is it possible to configure webhooks in playfab to use them for the photon chat? Because the only method to have persist channel history is with webhooks..
Or maybe there is another solution with the playfab cdn?

Sorry, no - the problem is that you need a data store that can be updated at high frequency, and can be read from and written to by many users. We don't provide a generic data system that manages both scaled read by tons of users (things like Title Data, Title News, and Publisher Data are sharded and cached, so they can do this), while at the same time being able to be written to by many users (Leaderboards would be a good example of this), so you would need to use an external data table for this. Normally, systems that can do both have to be custom-tailored to the specific requirements of the feature, since a truly generic system that could do both would be horrifyingly expensive to operate.
I also would like to know the same Benjamin already asked: can i configure photon chat webhooks? To our own server. As we cannot log in to Photon Chat due to Playfab has our Photon account handled. Or can we log in to Photon Chat website somehow?

We provide webhooks for Photon Realtime. The scenario of using webhooks to store all chat data is not supported currently. If that's not the scenario you have in mind, can you describe in more detail how you'd be using webhooks with Photon Chat?
Sure, i just need to be able to setup the webhooks to our server. I dont know how to setup it myself as i cannot access (at least dont know how to access) Photon Chat Webhooks setup site. Do you think you can set up it for me or grant me access by providing login information to Photon website?
So the problem here is that I am using Photon Chat through Playfab, so i dont really own the necessary login information to set up Photon Chat Webhooks. Can you tell me how to solve this?
Ah, I see. In general, if you want to have that level of control over your Photon Chat account, I'd recommend creating it directly with Exit Games. I'm happy to set up the BaseUrl/CustomHttpHeaders to your custom values, but you would not have direct control over those values, and short of having an contract with private support options, I can't guarantee how quickly we could update those settings if you needed us to.
