Webhooks are typically used to connect two different applications. When an event happens on one application which is the trigger application, it serializes data about that event and sends it to a webhook URL from the action application—the one you want to do something based on the data from the first application.
In this guide, we will be using a test webhook URL from https://webhook-test.com/ to show you how Doxflowy webhook integration works to help you send data to your application.
You’ll change the test URL that we’re using in this example with your real URL.
First, we will need to go to https://webhook-test.com/ to fetch a webhook URL; https://webhook-test.com/037d3cf519a65f23407921f38a9312e0
Now that we have our webhook URL, we will need to update our DoxFlowy workflow to add the webhook URL. Note that the Doxflowy webhook integration only accepts POST request webhook URLs.
To start configuring our webhook, we need to click the enable button to enable webhook. A right-side popup screen will appear as shown in the image below.
After pasting our webhook URL into the URL field, we click on the New Item button to add the data we want to send to our webhook, In our case we want the {{first_name}} and the {{last_name}} tags form data to be sent to our webhook.
We are asked to choose the role we want data to be sent from. In our case, we have only one role for this workflow. Click on the role and then click on each of the tags we want to be sent to our webhook as shown in the image below;
Our webhook configuration is ready. Now we click on the save action button to save our webhook configuration.
Let's go test our webhook by filling out and submitting our document workflow questionnaire.
After any form submission, we can see from our webhook that the data is sent to our webhook.
