Zapier Webhook/API Connection Errors With My Morse Code Website

I’m working on a Morse code translator website where users can enter normal text and convert it into Morse code, as well as decode Morse code back into text. I’m currently trying to connect the website with Zapier through a webhook/API integration so that certain actions on the website can trigger a Zap and pass the translated data to another application. The website itself is working normally, but I’m having trouble getting the API connection to work reliably.

The main problem is that the Zapier webhook sometimes fails to connect to my website’s API endpoint. In some tests, the request does not appear to reach the endpoint at all, while in other cases I receive a connection or request error even though the API URL is correct and the endpoint is accessible directly from a browser. I have also checked the request method and payload format, but I’m still not sure whether the issue is related to the webhook configuration, headers, authentication, or how my website is handling incoming requests.

Has anyone experienced a similar Zapier webhook/API connection issue with a custom website? I’d like to understand the best way to troubleshoot this from the Zapier side and determine whether the failed requests are caused by the Zap configuration or my website’s API endpoint. Any recommendations for checking the webhook request logs, required headers, authentication settings, or response format would be helpful. My main goal is to establish a stable connection so the website can reliably send and receive data through Zapier.

Hi ​@glenphillips32 

Link to the app API docs for us to reference.

Post screenshots showing how your Zap step is configure for the API request.
