Webhook

1. Overview

Webhook provides you with a simple interface to integrate Bloo with various third-party applications' webhooks and APIs. The Webhook plugin has a handy feature which allows you to use $Variables for substitution in the configuration. Check the Webhook example for Slack to understand its use case.

2. Pre-requisites

You need to provide the following data depending on the third-party webhook or API you intend to use:

• URL
• Headers
• Payload

3. Configuration

1. Follow the initial configuration steps in How to Configure Automation? in the Bloo Knowledge Base.

• Click the edit icon to add details.

Field	Description
Configuration Name	Name for the configuration.

URL	URL for the webhook or API.
