Candu webhooks allow you to automatically send data from Candu (the sender) to another application (the receiver), such as Slack! This allows you to receive immediate updates for important CTAs clicked or Form responses submitted.
Webhooks allow you to send automatically:
Content views: triggered whenever one of your users views embedded Candu content
Interaction Events: triggered whenever one of your users clicks on an interactive Candu component such as a card or button
Form Responses: triggered when a Candu Form is submitted. Learn more about how to send out a form response.
Connecting Candu Webhooks to Slack
In your Candu account, you can access Webhooks by going to 'Settings' > 'Integrations' > 'Outgoing Webhooks.'
You can then choose to send events to Slack under 'Format.'
To get the 'Endpoint URL' for your slack channel:
Open your Slack workspace and navigate to the channel where you want to receive notifications. Then click on Integrations > Apps > Add an app.
Search for 'Incoming Webhooks' and click 'Add to Slack.'
You can select which channel to post updates to and then 'Add incoming webhooks integration.'
This will generate the URL for you to use! Copy this URL
You can go back to the Candu and paste in your endpoint URL & name your webhook.
You can then select what content you want to send to your Slack channel, such as views or interactions for a specific piece of content or responses for a particular form.
You can then save and test the Webhook. You should get a response like this, with an essential notification and links to view form responses!
