Sending a Webhook
Once you have created an action, the extension popup will open to the Send tab, selecting the first action where your current URL matches with the URL RegEx pattern. From this tab, you can modify the form as needed and send a webhook to FlexDeploy.
Select a different action in the dropdown, if the action wasn’t automatically set correctly.
Update the webhook URL as needed.
Enter values for any properties not already filled in.
For single item properties, simply enter the correct value in the input field.
For list data properties, select whichever option(s) in the dropdown you would like sent with the payload. Additionally, you can type a new option and click Enter to add and select a new option.
After reviewing, click Send Webhook to send the payload to FlexDeploy. After receiving a response, the result will be indicated with a

with the error message for a failed response. You can check the console logs for more details after a failed response.
