Hello Everyone , I am trying to create a prefect automation to send a custom payload via a webhook. Is this possible ? More details in thread:

Currently we are sending an email notification with the body as as follows:

Copy code

"title": {{ flow.name }}/{{ flow_run.name }} observed in state `{{ flow_run.state.name }}` at {{ flow_run.state.timestamp }}.
"Flow ID": {{ flow_run.flow_id }}
"Flow run ID": {{ flow_run.id }}
"Flow run URL": {{ flow_run|ui_url }}
"State message": {{ flow_run.state.message }}

I would instead like to send a payload where the keys , i.e:

Copy code

{
  "title": ... ,
  "Flow ID": {{ flow_run.flow_id }} ,
  "Flow run ID": {{ flow_run.id }} ,
  "Flow run URL": {{ flow_run|ui_url }},
  "State message": {{ flow_run.state.message }}
}

I am also struggling with that. What happens with the stuff in "body"? Will this become the content of

--data

if I would submit the request via curl?

Hey yall, I found this issue and corresponding PR(which was merged to master) related to the question I asked. but im not seeing it in the cloud UI. https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/9526. Does someone mind confirming whether or not this functionality is possible to achieve in the cloud UI?

@Tim-Oliver, not sure if you ever got your question answered but the body becomes a

"message": "<body value here>"

as part of a payload

hey, you should be able to describe the body sent to your webhook when you're creaing the automation:

Hi @Jake Kaplan, First thanks for your reply! Understood. I guess my question was more just wondering why we could not send a custom payload -- after digging around in the prefect repo i found this PR which was merged to master (which demonstrates sending a custom payload):

ah, do you mean if you wanted to send custom content as opposed to json?

David Migl

I guess so, instead of sending out a singular key-vaule pair like so:

"message": <body>

I would like to send a payload like:

Copy code

"flow_name": "{{flow.name}}" ,
...
etc etc..

And that PR that i found seems to do just that, but the cloud UI does not seem to have that functionality

Ah I see what you mean! Notifications are slightly different between cloud and the self hosted. That one looks to be a user contribtion. I don’t think there is a particular reason we couldn’t support that (at least off the top of my head) in cloud. Would you mind opening a feature request issue for cloud in the prefect github repo

I would like to log some info to airtable via webhook. From the airtable documentation I found the following to work with `curl`:

Copy code

curl -X POST <https://api.airtable.com/v0/XXXXXXXXXX/webhook-test> \ 
  -H "Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "records": [
    {
      "fields": {
"Name": "Tim"
}
    },
    {
      "fields": {
"Name": "Oliver"
}
    }
  ]
}'

As far as I could follow along, this is currently not possible with the cloud UI. I think this would be super useful 🙂
