How to create two webhook responses in one scenario?

How To
1

Hello everyone,

I would like to create a second webhook response in my scenario. Here’s what I’m trying to achieve:

Desired flow:
Custom Webhook → First Webhook Response (notify user “process loading”) → My Scenario Processing → Second Webhook Response (notify user “process completed”)

I want to have:

  1. First response: “Process in progress”

  2. Second response: “Process completed”

Could you please advise me on how to set this up properly? I’m having trouble understanding how to send multiple responses from the same webhook.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi @c_silvio,

Unfortunately, webhooks can only send one response per request due to the HTTP protocol limitation. Once you send the first response, the HTTP connection closes and you cannot send another response to the same request.

You could benefit more from a response that contains the message ‘process loading’ and a process ID and then poll the process ID for completion.

Cheers,

Henk
