A Packages Webhook is just a URL that you can hit to start a package run. That means you can start a package run just by visiting a URL in your browser — or by using an automation platform like Zapier, Pabbly Connect, or Make.

Steps to trigger a Webhook

1

Head to the "Webhooks" page for the applicable package

Find the three dots next to the package you want to create a trigger for and click on “Webhooks”.
You can find this on the packages page.
2

Copy the Webhook URL

Click the clipboard icon to copy the webhook URL.
3

Paste it as a step into your Automation Platform

Some platforms call it webhooks, while others refer to it as an API call. Whatever the case, you’ll need to paste the URL you copied in the previous step.All Packages webhooks start with the run.packages.ai domain.
In this example were using Pabbly Connect.
4

Add Parameters if Needed

Automation platforms like Zapier allow you to add “parameters” to your webhook. This can be useful if you need to pass data to your package.“Parameters” would essentially be the “inputs” of your package.
It is important to note that for the parameter label/name — you do not pass the human-readable name of the input like Month or Year. Instead, you pass the id of the input, i.e. YrXrRtyG2-7C5REOMwidVUOKb.This is done to prevent input name changes from breaking your webhooks.
5

Run the workflow

Wait for the workflow to run and check Packages to see if the webhook/run was triggered successfully.
6

Your webhook should have triggered a package run!

You did it! 🎉 your webhook works and you can repeat the process for other packages.
