Creating Webhooks Programmatically?

Question

I just completed the outgoing and incoming Webhooks tutorial at link. Both of these processes work well in theory. However, I am attempting to integrate the chat feature of Microsoft Teams into an issue tracking application. In this case, each issue will have a unique channel, created when a ticket is submitted. Any correspondence will be created as messages in the issue's channel. Following this method, the application will need to send any messages to the incoming and outgoing webhook, to trigger an event to retrieve any new messages when the outgoing webhook identifies new messages from channel members. In the tutorials, the outgoing/incoming webhooks were created manually. This process would not scale with an infinite number of channels. Is there a way to programmatically create webhooks, once a channel is created? If so, is there any documentation (nodejs samples) on this?
