I have a webhook set up in Zapier. Works great! The only thing is, how can I make the webhook RETURN a value? The only thing I get back from the webhook now is:

{"id": "7560da36-be60-48aa-ba6c-b9f99c65bd98", "request_id": "6143458d-27b5-4283-a25b-8e65e7a18a90", "attempt": "6143458d-27b5-4283-a25b-8e65e7a18a90", "status": "success"}

Thanks!

Just wanted to pop in here to note that we’ve added @patrickmast to the existing feature request we have open for this.

I don’t have a timeline for when this functionality would be added to the Webhooks by Zapier app but we’ll send an email notification and will keep this thread updated with any news. :)

Hi @patrickmast 

Zapier Webhooks don’t currently support returning a value.

As an alternative you can try: https://webhook.site/

Hmm, then it’s back to Integromat for this one..

Is there a timeline for this to be added to Zapier?

@patrickmast 

Not that I’m aware of.

I’ve previously submitted this feature request to Zapier.

Generally Zapier doesn’t provide timelines for these type of requests.
