Question

How to Use Dynamic Variables from a Prior Step in a Webhook Payload?

Hi everyone

I’m trying to send data from a previous step in a webhook payload, but I’m having trouble dynamically referencing variables from the earlier step. Can anyone share the best way to map dynamic variables into the webhook's payload? Specifically, I need to pull user info from a form submission and send it through to an API endpoint.

Thanks!
