## Code

```php
add_filter( 'woocommerce_webhook_topic_hooks', function ( $topics ) {
    $topics['order.status_changed'] = array( 'woocommerce_order_status_changed' );

    return $topics;
} );

add_filter( 'woocommerce_valid_webhook_events', function ( $events ) {
    $events[] = 'status_changed';

    return $events;
} );

add_filter( 'woocommerce_webhook_topics', function ( $topics ) {
    $topics['order.status_changed'] = 'Order status changed';

    return $topics;
} );
```

## Notes

Choose "Order status changed" when creating a webhook under WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Webhooks; the payload is the full order.
