Webhook Integration

Use webhooks when you want Jottler to notify external automation tools whenever an article is published.

Setup flow

1. Create a webhook URL in your automation platform:
   • Make
   • Zapier
   • n8n
   • any endpoint that accepts JSON POST payloads
2. In Jottler, go to:
   • Settings -> Integrations -> Webhook
3. Paste your webhook URL and save.
4. Send a test payload from Jottler to confirm your receiver mapping.

Event payload example

{
  "event": "article.published",
  "timestamp": "2026-03-14T12:00:00Z",
  "article": {
    "id": "uuid",
    "title": "Article Title",
    "slug": "article-title",
    "html": "<p>Full HTML content</p>",
    "metaDescription": "SEO meta description",
    "keywords": ["keyword1", "keyword2"],
    "featuredImage": "https://...url or null",
    "wordCount": 1500,
    "createdAt": "2026-03-14T...",
    "updatedAt": "2026-03-14T..."
  },
  "category": { "name": "Category Name" },
  "topic": { "title": "Topic Title", "type": "how-to" },
  "site": { "domain": "example.com", "url": "https://example.com" }
}

Testing checklist

1. Trigger a test payload from Jottler.
2. Verify your endpoint receives HTTP 200.
3. Confirm field mapping in your automation step.
4. Publish one real article and verify production handling.

Common tips

• Keep your receiver idempotent by checking article.id.
• Log raw payloads while building your first automation.
• If your platform requires auth, use a webhook endpoint that supports a secret token or signed requests.
