Question

How do I receive information from a Zapier Webhook so I can process it?

I am completely new to webhooks, but I believe I understand what they are for.

I have an e-commerce website and would like to get automated information from BTCPay Server.

BTCPay Server will send a notice with data to Zapier Webhook, I guess for preprocessing?

However, when the Zapier hook sends that to me, how am I to receive it so that I may add to a database or do other processing?

I’ve learned a good bit of PHP and use it in APIs or for MySQL. I have looked high and low but only seem to find information on sending data. I see very little for how to receive it from a webhook or how to build a webhook listener or receiver.

Hi @MJScharen 

The Zap trigger would be Webhook - Catch Hook: https://zapier.com/apps/webhook/help

This will provide the URL to place in your source app that fires the webhook with the data payload.

Then you can configure the Zap action steps.
