Click the Manage Providers button and then the Create Provider button to create a new Provider.
To start with I am simply going to return true here to allow any message through (we will update this later on but right now we just want the message to get through). Click Save.
...
Now that we have our Provider, navigate Back to the Webhook Functions screen. You should now see your GitHub Provider set up top. Click Create Function to create a Function for the GitHub Provider.
Similar to the Provider Script, we will circle back here and flesh this out, but for now we just simply log that we ran the function and finish. Notice the Full Resource Path that is displayed. This is the resource path we will ultimately give to GitHub to call our Function. Make the updates as I have done here and click Save.

If you are running this command on the FlexDeploy server you can omit the server and just specify the port. In this case that is exactly what we are doing:
Copy your new public endpoint (http or https works for GitHub). Lastly we need to append the Full Resource Path from our Function. Our full url looks like the following:

Update the Function script to the following:

Drill into the execution and check out the change logs to see the changes from your push.

Providers also can also have secured properties associated with them. Normally this would be used instead of putting the secret in plain text in our script as seen here. |
Final Validation
Lastly lets push one more time and validate everything is still working.
Be sure to turn off your ngrok tunnel when you are done!
