Question

Can Webhooks trigger off of Automations?

I was wondering if an automation that changes a field on a record can trigger a webhook that is looking for that change? If I make the change manually, the webhook triggers, but if it changes through the automation it is not working at the moment. Is there a work around for this or perhaps I am doing something wrong.

Here is more details about my situation:

Hi Jordan,

Automations making a change on a record should trigger a webhook if the record change meets the conditions of the Webhook. Is your webhook just looking for a specific field change and if so does the Automation definitely change that field and the value coming over isn't the same as before? Also webhooks does have a limit for how many can fire at once, have you gotten any error emails letting you know that you have exceeded the threshold just incase that Automation is editing a large volume of records at the same time?
