Can I do it? How can I do it?

I am receiving payload from github webhook and I want to update entity directly. What are the simple options do I have?

Hi, the ImmediateEntityProvider receives a POST and update entities, maybe this can give you a path: https://github.com/backstage/backstage/blob/master/contrib/catalog/ImmediateEntityProvider.ts
The official doc about providers can be accessed here https://backstage.io/docs/features/software-catalog/external-integrations

It's not outside an EntityProvider, but looks like it could receive a webhook and do the job.
