Hi,I am trying to use webhooks to POST to an endpoint URL provided by a partner but am not having luck with the body, it keeps giving me an error saying the the Body is not a valid JSON object- any help would be appreciated! I am fairly new at using webhooks so completely lost with the body!------------------------------Magaly Reyes------------------------------

Yay, thank you so much!! This was my first time making an outbound POST, you rock!------------------------------Mags R------------------------------

Not sure if I can help but there could be other people on this forum who can. Can you find a way to capture that JSON and paste it into the forum and also tell us examples of what data you're trying to retrieve from the JSON.------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)mark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------

Hey Mark!Not sure if I am understanding..I am trying to actually send data to an API URL..basically whenever a record is created in our quickbase it will trigger to make a request and POST certain fields. I got everything up until the BODY of the make a request step, it keeps giving me errors for incorrect template. All I did with the body is drag the fields from a previous step into the body so they're listed as;{{a.outbound_referral_company}}{{a.customer_full_name}}{{a.customer_phone}}{{ a.customer_email}}{{a.customer_date_of_birth}}how should I write the body so it can successfully post to the URL.------------------------------Magaly Reyes------------------------------

OK, I thought you were receiving, my mistake. Sorry can't help.------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)mark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------

Hi Magaly,I'm doing a lot of this type of stuff. Are each of the fields you list above the 'value' in your JSON? In other words,Does your JSON request look like this? {"outbound referral company":"{{a.outbound_referral_company}}","customer full name":"{{a.customer_full_name}}"}It's possible you're either missing the quotes, or for those fields they need to be converted first. You can add '|to_json' to any fields that might have reserved characters, like this: {{a.outbound_referral_company|to_json}} and that might fix your problem. If that doesn't work, share the text of the request body. ------------------------------Jeff Peterson------------------------------

  {{a.outbound_referral_company}}
  {{a.customer_full_name}}
  {{a.customer_phone}}

  how should I write the body so it can successfully post to the URL.
