@Marvin Is it possible to respond to a webhook request?
m
Yes, it is possible to respond to a webhook request using Prefect, specifically with Prefect Cloud. Prefect Cloud webhooks can receive, observe, and respond to events from other systems. Each webhook exposes a unique URL endpoint that can handle incoming web requests and transform them into Prefect events for use in automations. You can configure these webhooks through the Prefect Cloud API, UI, or CLI. The webhooks are defined by a unique URL and a template that translates incoming requests to Prefect events. For more detailed information, you can refer to the Prefect documentation on webhook triggers.

@Marvin Are we able to respond with anything other than a 204 code?
m
The Prefect documentation does not explicitly mention the ability to customize webhook response codes beyond the default behavior. Prefect Cloud webhooks are described as "deliberately quiet," which suggests that they may not have built-in support for custom response codes beyond the standard 204 (No Content) that is typical for webhook responses. For the most accurate and detailed information, you might want to explore the Prefect forums or contact their support to see if there have been any updates or workarounds for this feature. Here is the documentation on webhook triggers for your reference.
