Question

After using a Webhook, how do we get the information on a form to be submitted to the third-party application?

Forms Ideas

asked on May 16, 2014

Using http://requestb.in I have figured out that Forms "Webhook" simply sends a request that looks like this:

{"bpInstanceId":13,"submissionId":19}

I am assuming that now I need to somehow have the third-party app send back a similar HTTP POST to Forms, saying "Okay, send me all the variables for bpInstanceId 13" similar to the way that Workflow makes this request in a "Retrieve Laserfiche Forms Content" activity.

Is there documentation that shows how to make this request of the Forms service?

We are planning on enhancing webhook service tasks in the future to make them more useful and easier to use. That said, it is unlikely that this enhancement will be in the Forms 9.2 release later this year.

Bump!

I'm also very interested in better (or any) documentation on how to utilize the webhook service task, unless it's still not functional?

At least an answer on it's status would be much appreciated, as this would be very useful for extending forms functionality!

Bump!

I received an answer from Laserfiche Presales in response to an e-mail. I'd like to see if anyone can comment on whether more data will be added to the Webhook feature in the future.

We are going to try getting around the issue by executing a Workflow and then having it make an HTTP Post, but it would be nice if this worked as expected straight from Forms.
