Add a webhook to a basic scenario

Last update: Wed Jan 15 2025 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)

Webhooks, also known as instant triggers, are a specific kind of trigger module that can start a scenario whenever a change is made, instead of on a given schedule.

In this example, you will add a webhook to start a scenario as soon as any requests have been submitted to a specific request queue. The scenario then converts those requests to a project.

This example modifies the scenario created in Create a basic scenario.

Prerequisites

You must create the scenario described in Create a basic scenario before following this procedure.

Add and configure the webhook

Add the webhook module

  1. Open the scenario in the scenario editor.

  2. Right click on the first module and select Delete module.

    The module is deleted, leaving a blank placeholder.

  3. Click the blank module, and select ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Workfront from the list of apps.

  4. Select Watch Events.

  5. Click Add next to the Webhook field.

  6. in the Record Type field, select Issue, so the module will trigger for changes in issues.

  7. In the State field, select New state. This is a required field that is used for the filter, which this example does not cover.

  8. In the Record Origin field, select New Record Only. This allows the scenario to trigger when an issue is added, not when one is updated or deleted.

  9. Click Save to save the module configuration.

Update the second module

  1. Open the scenario.
  2. Click the Convert object module to open it.
  3. In the Issue ID field, delete the black ID block. The block is black because the module it was mapped from is no longer available.
  4. Select the ID block under the first module (Watch Events) to map it to the second module.
  5. Click OK.

Test and activate

  1. Click Run once in the lower-left corner of the scenario editor.

    The scenario must be running to watch for the new request.

  2. Go to the Workfront environment that Fusion is connecting to and add an issue.

    The scenario should run.

  3. Examine the output to ensure that the scenario ran as expected.

  4. When you are satisfied that the scenario is working as expected, click the Scheduling toggle in the lower-left of the screen to On.

    This activates the scenario.

  5. In Workfront Fusion, click Save near the lower-left corner to save your progress on the scenario.
