This is a teeeensy Phoenix app! It implements a little server that checks for new submissions to a form in Actionkit, and then sends webhooks with the user data and custom action fields to an endpoint specified in an Airtable base.
- Install dependencies with
mix deps.get - Start Phoenix endpoint with
mix phoenix.server
The following environment variables are required. Get secrets from Ben if you're working with him!
AIRTABLE_KEY=
AIRTABLE_BASE=
AIRTABLE_TABLE_NAME=
AK_BASE=
AK_USERNAME=
AK_PASSWORD=
UPDATE_SECRET=
And, this app expects an Airtable base with a table named "Configuration" that has at least three columns:
- "Page ID" -> an Actionkit page id
- "Endpoint" -> the endpoint to send the webhook too
- "Stagger?" -> whether or not the outgoing webhooks should be staggered by 250ms each (the fourth new response would be send out a full second after the first). Zapier gets upset if things come all at the same time.
Add a new line to the Airtable sheet. Wait to the nearest 5th minute */5 * * * *
or force and update (instructions below). Then, youre webhooks will start coming!
GET /heath -> returns 200 and a little message unless something is wrong (for uptime monitoring)
GET /force-update?secret=thesecretbengivesyou -> forces and update, and returns a 200 after
GET /list-hooks -> for seeing which page -> endpoint mappings are currently registered
If you put a page in there twice, it will execute twice! Potentially sending it off to 2 different webhooks, if that's what you want. This also means that to deprecate old webhooks, you'll actually need to delete the row and wait 5 minutes or force an update (you can't overwrite it by adding a new row).
This is configured to use Gigalixir (https://gigalixir.com/). JD people, you can use these endpoints by going to https://webhooks.justicedemocrats.com
