An Inbound Webhook is a powerful feature that enables an external system to send data to your Enrollio automatically. Whenever an event occurs in the external system, you can trigger a workflow in Enrollio by sending an HTTP POST request to a specific URL associated with the trigger. This real-time data transfer capability enhances the functionality of Enrollio by allowing it to integrate seamlessly with other systems.
Briefly, bring your data to the system in 3 simple steps using the Inbound Webhook Trigger
Retrieve the Post URL and use it in your application or system. Next, send the data to the Post URL and click on the "Test Trigger" button.
Choose the data that you received from your application or system and save it as sample data for future reference. You can view additional recent data by clicking on "Load More." Once you have selected the desired data, save the trigger.
In this step, you can save the data reference that you will use in the custom variables, which can be treated similarly to other contact custom fields or Location Custom Variables.
The next step and examples below provide more information on how to utilize this reference.
Step 2.1: Hit a POST request to the copied webhook Url and copy the id in the response.
Step 2.2: Copy the unique id and use it to search for the relevant mapping reference within your webhook trigger.
Please note that the most recent request will always be located at the top of the list.
Step 2.3: Select the correct reference and verify the body.
Upon saving the trigger, you will be directed to the "Create Update Contact" action. From there, you can select the necessary fields and map the incoming data that you have received from the trigger. Please note that to create a new contact or map data to an existing one, you must provide either an email or phone field.
By completing the above steps, you can now use the data that you have received within the workflow as custom values in email, sms, if/else, etc.
The custom values of Inbound Webhook can be utilised in all of the actions within your workflow. Some examples of how to do this are provided below.
In your communication Actions:
In If/Else Actions:
As shown above, you can use the values that come from the Inbound Webhook inside all other actions as you see fit.
Please Note: You can include a contacts full name as a parameter in the create/update contact action that follows the trigger.
