Question

Is there a way to start an Action Flow via an URL with some fields? Just like the Manual Sensor in Skills, but for Action Flows.


That way I could put the link in the button in an Analysis, and the users could click there, fill in some fields, and done - and that would execute the Action Flow with the values of the formular.

Hi Josep,

 

I think you cannot directly trigger action flow but you can run ML notebook, from there you can trigger action flow.

Does not apply. If you set up a webhook than either (1) you activate it via a GET request, in which case you cannot pass any parameters, or (2) you activate it via a POST request. None of these serve the purpose of an URL that directs to a formular, where users can fill fields that are used as parameters for the execution of the Action Flow.

Please review again. go to the section on query string parameters. We have done similar - you can pass parameters via query string. if you can construct that then this should be sufficient.


Hello Josep, were you able to do it? I'm looking for the same answers.
