 ## Custom HTTP endpoints
 Using the `registerEventListener` mechanism it is possible to expose custom HTTP endpoint on your SilverBullet’s server under the `/_/` prefix.
 
-Whenever a HTTP request is sent to your SilverBullet server under this prefix, for instance `https://notes.myserver.com/_/hello` a `http:request` event is emitted. If a handler responds to it, this response will be used as the HTTP response.

 > **warning** Warning
 > Custom HTTP endpoints are not authenticated. If you want to add authentication, you have to do this manually, e.g. by checking for an “Authorization” header in your code.

 You can try it out here: https://silverbullet.md/_/echo
 
+**Note:** Since event names support wildcards, you can write event listeners to prefixes as well, e.g. `http:request:/something/*`.
 
 # Custom attribute extractors
 SilverBullet indexes various types of content as [[Objects]]. There are various ways to define [[Attributes]] for these objects, such as the [attribute: my value] syntax. However, using space script you can write your own code to extract attribute values not natively supported using the registerAttributeExtractor API.
