Custom response to webhooks

Returning custom response to webhooks

Some applications expect a response when they send a webhook. This can be a special header, body or status code.

Configuring input

Go to your bucket details and click on "Response Configuration" next to the input:

There, you can configure:

• Choose - dynamic response from output, this will return a response from any output that responds within 10 seconds. Your server can return any payload here.
• Static response - you can response status code, body and headers.

Once selected, click "Save"

Alternative Option - Function

You can also create a function to return a custom response to a webhook. Go to your functions page and click on "Create Function" button.

r:SetResponseStatusCode(200)
r:SetResponseHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
r:SetResponseBody("{\"message\":\"Webhook received\"}")

This function needs to be attached to the input. Functions that are attached to the output cannot modify the response.
