We are exploring monday.com API and webhooks to integrate our web application/database with monday.com data interaction.


From our monday.com Board page, Integrate → Webhooks → Choose “When a status changes to something, send a webhook” → Enter our web server application link → Get an error message “Failed to communicate with URL provided”.


We are trying to add a new record from monday.com to our database through our web application. Is it possible through webhook?


Any suggestions would be appreciated.


Thank you,

Phyllis

Your web server application link needs to check the payload it receives for the presence of the challenge key, and if found, send a response with the structure:


{ "challenge": "challenge random string"} //where the random string is the value sent in the challenge key.

monday.com Platform API

This is only done when creating the webhook the first time, basically this is just for the webhook to know the URL is setup to handle the webhook and not being used for malicious purposes like attempting to DoS some random server.

Thank you Cody,

In the web server, we have a ColdFusion page webhook.cfm to check the payload.

It works!


Thanks,

Phyllis
