You need to go to :

[https://webhooks.ideta.io/](https://webhooks.ideta.io/) and create your webhook.

In the publish section at the top of the screen, you can get your API URL :

If you do a request with a body, it will appear in the History section :

The content will be stored in the variable ideta\_api\_body.

The content of GET parameters ({{YOUR\_WEBHOOK\_URL}}?param=value) will be stored in the variable ideta\_api\_params.

And the headers of your request in ideta\_api\_headers.

An important operation in webhooks is the GET function :

With it you can do that and bypass the flat structure authorized in the platform :

Last notice, before injecting the content into a Generative AI or RAG bubble, you may have to clean the content a bit using the replace function :
