Webhook Trigger

The way webhook triggers usually work is as follows:

On Enable: Use context.webhookUrl to perform an HTTP request to register the webhook in a third-party app, and store the webhook Id in the store.

On Handshake: Some services require a successful handshake request usually consisting of some challenge. It works similar to a normal run except that you return the correct challenge response. This is optional and in order to enable the handshake you need to configure one of the available handshake strategies in the handshakeConfiguration option.

Run: You can find the HTTP body inside context.payload.body. If needed, alter the body; otherwise, return an array with a single item context.payload.body.

Disable: Using the context.store, fetch the webhook ID from the enable step and delete the webhook on the third-party app.

Testing: You cannot test it with Test Flow, as it uses static sample data provided in the piece. To test the trigger, publish the flow, perform the event. Then check the flow runs from the main dashboard.
