Hi there

I would like to create a User’s event triggered once getting a new user is created.
Currently I only saw 2 triggering events, none of which were what I’d want to use.

Hi @tranhai 

Look into using Moodle Webhooks: https://moodle.org/plugins/local_webhooks

Zap trigger: Webhook - Catch Hook


Hi @Troy Tessalone , it didn’t work, Do you know other way?


@tranhai 

You’ll have to provide more info about “what you tried” and “what didn’t work” along with screenshots to give us context.


Hi @Troy Tessalone , Sure sure
Current I only anle to choose one of two options. My expectation is to be able to create a new event (New User)
My expectation is to be able to create
 

 


I also have set up the WebHook, I have a question. Why don’t I see WebHooks connection?

 


Hi there @tranhai,

I’m jumping in to see if I can help!

Unfortunately, there no available “New User” trigger for the Moodle app in Zapier. I recommend reaching out to our Support Team to create a feature request on your behalf.

You can reach our Support Team here: https://zapier.com/app/get-help

In the meantime, you can use Webhooks by Zapier as a workaround as long as the Moodle API supports the “New User” API.

Just to be upfront, Webhooks by Zapier is considered an advanced feature, so our support for it may be more limited. Not because we don't want to help, but because APIs can be tricky to troubleshoot since we can't see what's happening on the other side. Every API that you send a request to is going to have slightly different structures that are required.

This makes it hard for us to know why the request may be receiving errors or not working as expected, beyond taking a general look at what's showing in Zapier.

Here are some resources that may be helpful:

Hopefully, this helps.
