Shopify Webhook not working for app/uninstalled

I’ve created a shopify app with PHP. and registered a webhook for ‘app/uninstalled’. Which will remove data from my database.

But when I delete this app the webhook isn’t triggering. Because the store isn’t removing from my database.

Here is my code:

`POST /admin/webhooks.json
'webhook'  => array(
    "topic" => "app/uninstalled",
    "address" => "https://my-domain/apps/app-name/uninstall.php",
    "format" => 'json',
 ),`

Can anyone tell me what is the problem and what things should I need to edit?

I’ve tried for a long time but now I’m stuck with this….

    Try to use with exception handling:-

    <?php 
try
{
	$webhook_delete = array(
	'webhook' =>
	     array(
		'topic' => 'app/uninstalled',
		'address' => 'https://your-domain/app/delhook.php?shop=shop-name',
		'format' => 'json'
	     )
        );
        $result = $shopify('POST /admin/webhooks.json',$webhook_delete);
}
catch (shopifyApiException $e)
{
      # HTTP status code was >= 400 or response contained the key 'errors'
	echo $e;
	print_r($e->getRequest());
	print_r($e->getResponse());
}
catch (shopifyCurlException $e)
{
      # cURL error
	echo $e;
	print_r($e->getRequest());
	print_r($e->getResponse());
}

    You can pass store-name with address in link and can fetch on delhook.php or your file.

    Delhook.php

    if(isset($_REQUEST['shop'])) { 
  //here you can remove store from your database.
}

    If you get any error then it will print the error.

    If you believe that the webhook had been created. In https://my-domain/apps/app-name/uninstall.php put these line of code 

    $webhook = file_get_contents('php://input');
$webhook = json_decode($webhook, TRUE);
$newFileName = "something.txt";
file_put_contents($newFileName, $webhook);

    It will catch the json shopify send when you uninstall your apps and put into file something.txt after that get the info your use to store. Json usually look like
