Common Webhook Patterns

Filtering

Only trigger for specific conditions:

  • profit >$100 (high-value orders)
  • margin
  • traffic_source = “facebook” (specific source)

Multi-Step Workflows

  1. Receive webhook
  2. Check condition
  3. If true → Send to Slack AND add to Sheets
  4. If false → Do nothing

Data Transformation

Format webhook data before sending elsewhere:

  • Convert currency
  • Calculate additional metrics
  • Format dates
  • Truncate long text
