Extract values from webhook

HI, I am trying to create a scenario where the webhook receives a payload (output is attached). In the next steps I want to take the value of the email from the webhook and update a google sheet with that value. But I am not able to extract the email value. I tried setting variables, text aggregators, parse JSON.. but for all the modules the email, session id, the fields that are outside the file array are not passing values and are blanks. Request you to please help.



Welcome to the Make community!

You cannot individually run a single module if you don’t have example values of the “Data”, which you must input into the prompt when you manually run a single module.

Try running the full scenario instead by clicking the “Run Once” button:

For more information, see these duplicate questions previously asked and answered by other community members:

If you need further assistance, please provide the following:

1. Relevant Screenshots

Could you please share screenshots of your full scenario? Also include screenshots of any error messages, module settings (fields), relevant filter settings (conditions), and module output bundles. We need to see what you’re working with to give you the best advice.

You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor:

We would appreciate it if you could upload screenshots here instead of linking to them outside of the forum. This allows us to zoom in on the image when clicked, and prevent tracking cookies from third-party websites.

2. Scenario Blueprint

Please export the scenario blueprint. Providing your scenario blueprint file will allow others to quickly recreate and see how you have set up the mappings in each module, and also allows us take screenshots or provide module exports of any solutions we have for you in return - this would greatly benefit you in implementing our suggestions as you can simply paste module exports back into your scenario editor!

To export your scenario blueprint, click the three dots at the bottom of the editor then choose ‘Export Blueprint’.

You can upload the file here by clicking on this button:

3. Output Bundles of Modules

Please provide the output bundles of each of the relevant modules by running the scenario (you can also get this without re-running your scenario from the History tab).

Click on the white speech bubbles on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”.

A. Upload as a Text File

Save each bundle contents in a plain text editor (without formatting) as a bundle.txt file.

You can upload the file here by clicking on this button:

B. Insert as Formatted Code Block

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles.
These are the two ways to format text so that it won’t be modified by the forum:

  • Method 1: Type code block manually

    Add three backticks ``` before and after the content/bundle, like this:

    ```
    content goes here
    ```

  • Method 2. Highlight and click the format button in the editor

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario, especially if there are complex data structures (nested arrays and collections) or if external services are involved, and help you with mapping the raw property names from collections.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Hello, Thanks a lot for your response and help. The issue is resolved and i have the value now. I created a new scenario with a new webhook and sent a post request from POSTMAN with the payload. That created the data structure, next Tool - text aggregator → Tools - Set variables and this time the email is captured.
