Inbound Webhook

I am new to Camunda. I have watched a number of videos including the fish webhook video. I cannot find http webhook. I do have Webhook (message) start event connector however I cannot configure inbound variables or data payload to use in the process. Ive downloaded the windows x64 modeler and updated the global json connector configs to v11. Still dont see it. What am I doing wrong here? If I can figure this out Im sure I can muddle though the rest of it. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello @docelmo,

Welcome to the forum! Please accept my apologies for the late response.

Could you please clarify what your goal is? Also, when you mention “I cannot find http webhook,” could you elaborate on what you’re encountering? Any additional context you can provide, such as a screenshot or the .bpmn file, would be helpful.

I downloaded the c8run image and installed it on Ubuntu purely for development and testing. When I launch the designer I see webhook options but see no way to handle inbound variables being passed in with the webhook. I am trying to setup a workflow that accepts variables. Those variables are then passed around the workflow to make decisions or aide in further connecting to endpoints like outlook, teams, etc.

Hi @docelmo,

when you configure your webhook via the Camunda Modeler, you can define an “Output mapping” in the section with the same name in the technical properties panel of the webhook. There is a field “Result variable” available to take the complete request payload (body, headers, params) and save it as a process variable to use further in the flow. If you only want to map specific values into process variables you can specify a “Result expression”.

Have a look at step no. 5 in the section “Make your HTTP Webhook Connector executable” in the Webhook Connector documentation. There is an example how to leverage result expressions.

I hope this helps.
