Backend Event Listener / Webhook

[eremin.theodor]

Hi, Bubblers.

I have not found on this forum anything close to my topic so decide to start a conversation about an issue I faced recently. I was tasked to build a commucation in a project between several APIs. As a step 1 it is neccessary to receive and handle information in Bubble when the data will be send from another service. The first idea is to set a webhook. But, it is possible to create the endpoint manually and only manually. I was testing that logic with postman and the data was received successfully only when I click on the button. Thus, this option is not very reliable.

Can you advice me something like event listener on bubble side. The task is to get and handle a data when that data will be sent from another services.

Thanks

Create a backend workflow, set the parameter definition to be detect request data.

There are lots of forum posts and youtube videos on how to set up webhooks in Bubble.

That is because you are testing in postman and not setting up the API providers webhooks, which are triggered by the 3rd party API and sent to your Bubble backend workflow.
