Webhooks

You can connect any platform which supports webhook calls with InstaWP shared templates.

This document explains the concept of webhook (in shared templates) with an example of how you can collect sandbox spinups in a Google Sheet with the help of Make as the automation platform.

Make + Google Sheet

To get started, create a free Make.com account and obtain a webhook.

In this example, we are connecting Make to Google Sheet, so that every time a new template site is spawned, a new row with details is added to Google Sheet.

Configure Make

Create a new Scenario - Add Webhook as the first step.

Configure InstaWP

Now open the template sharing options, and paste the webhook URL into the webhook field.

Test the webhook URL by creating a new site and verifying it on the Make's interface.

Google Sheet

Next, create an empty Google Sheet with following headers:
