Add a "Then post a webhook" action in a workflow

Automation workflows are no longer limited to the actions you can perform within your account in our platform. The "Then post a webhook" action allows you to connect your workflow with any third-party system like Zapier or your own application. When the action runs, it sends a JSON object using a POST request to a pre-defined endpoint. The endpoint entered in the Webhook URL field must be reachable (e.g. no authentication, no timeouts, etc.) with HEAD, GET, and POST verbs.

To add a Then post a webhook action in a workflow:

  1. Click + below any part of your workflow where you want to add a Then post a webhook action. In the example below, the "When someone subscribes to any list" trigger has been selected.

  5. In the Webhook URL field, enter the URL to which you want to send a POST request.
    Example: You can use the Then post a webhook action to keep your internal systems in sync with the actions your end-users perform in your emails or website. For example, you can build a simple application that registers purchases to your CRM and uses an automation workflow in our platform to send a webhook to your app whenever someone purchases on your website. You can also use tools like Zapier to connect our platform with other third-party systems.

    If you need the technical details of what exactly is sent over to your app or third-party system through the webhook, you can find them below:
    HTTP Method: POST
    POST Payload Type: JSON
    Payload JSON Schema: (You can also conveniently find the schema here)

  6. Click Save.
