Hi, I’ve been trying to get custom actions and triggers working but don’t understand how to set up the API. I’ve set up the base URL using ngrok and the built-in apps work. However, the following block for both trigger and action when set up with the paths specific return the following error:
Hello there @jason_dialog and welcome to the community!
I hope you like it here 💪
Which subscribe and and unsubscribe URLs are you using in the custom trigger?
Do you have those endpoints running in a project in the same port as ngrok?
Looking forward to hearing from you 🙂
Cheers,
Matias
Hi Matais, thanks for responding to my call for help. I set the URLs to the example suggested
/monday/subscribe and monday/unsubscribe so it would point to my ngrok address.
I don’t have the endpoints running in the project, in the same port. Maybe if you can point me to what file or code I have to insert where to set that up.
Hello there @jason_dialog!
If you are using ngrok, you have probably started ngrok and got a forwarding URL such as https://111-22-333-44-555.ngrok.io
You have to add that URL in your app, in your integration feature, in the “Feature details” tab, in the “Base URL” field.
Your ngrok is working on a specific port. You will see in your terminal when you start ngrok that it says something like https://111-22-333-44-555.ngrok.io → http://localhost:3000. In this case, 3000 would be that port. Then you have to run the file/project in which you have those endpoints (/monday/subscribe and /monday/unsubscribe) in the same port.
For example, in my example code, those endpoints look like this:
app.post("/monday/subscribe", function (req, res) {
console.log(req.body)
res.send(res.body);
});
And to run my project y open the terminal in Visual Studio Code, go to the folder which contains my file (the file that contains these endpoints) and in the terminal I run node filename.js
It is important to note that I have these lines of code in my file:
import express from "express";
import http from "http";
import bodyParser from "body-parser";
const app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.json());
const server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000, function() {
console.log('Express server listening on port 3000.');
})
Hope the examples help!
Cheers,
Matias
