The webhook node sends information from a flow in real-time to an external application.
Currently, Pendula supports the following credential types: username/password, request header and bearer token.
Some examples of how the webhook node can be used include:
- Updating an entry in a system of records
- Writing to a spreadsheet

What is a Webhook?
Webhook is a way for an app to automatically provide other applications with real-time data.
Create a Webhook
- Provide the credential from the external application in the Integrations page. This ensures Pendula's identity can be verified every time a call is made.
- In the Flow builder, drag and drop the webhook node onto the canvas to open up the settings panel.
- In the Make an API call section, select the HTTP request method you want to use for (
GET,PUTorPOST) - Insert the API endpoint URL – this is where you want to send the request to.
- In the Authentication section, select authentication type required.
- Select the relevant stored credential. If the credential hasn't been added, you can add one in the Integrations page.
- In the Request body section, select your Content type (currently available in JSON or Text)
- Enter your request body
