# Webhook subscriptions subTopic has been removed

As of 2024-07, the subTopic argument has been removed for creating webhook subscriptions. For creating subscriptions that previously required a subTopic the filter argument should be used instead.

Learn more about [webhook filters on Shopify.dev](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/webhooks/customize/filters).
