Hey Tom, first of all I appreciate you so much for making the tutorial, thank you! However, I have a question, with a webhook trigger, while it doesn’t cost any operation when it is listening for new responses, the scenario will be “completed” once it received any responses, and it will deactivate the scenario right? What I’m trying to ask is how do I keep the scenario active even after there’s a webhook trigger & the operation ran through? I’m not sure why everytime, I would need to manually go back and click run to listen for new response again, since everytime the webhook is triggered it will complete the scenario (or it stopped listening for future responses), I want to keep it running & always listening to new responses/trigger
@@chris_rey when you are in your specific make scenario, under the bar, there’s a “scenario settings” button, just right beside the save button, when you click on it and scroll down, you would see this “Max number of cycles”, you can set it to how many you want, basically it means how many cycles do we want this scenario to run before it stops/complete, this way, this scenario will constantly keep listening to new responses/trigger from the initial webhook. One important thing is to turn on the scheduling toggle on the bottom left corner under the run once button!
Thanks. Quick question. How do you turn on the custom webhook variables. Seems like I can't do anything without that feature. If any one can help that would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance
See if this works! Check your platform's webhook settings (usually under "Integrations" or "API"). Enable custom variables if there's a toggle or option. Define placeholders in your payload (e.g., {{variable_name}}). Test the webhook to ensure variables populate correctly.
Webhooks are essential when data comes in slowly, but if it comes in quickly, it will generate webhooks many times in 15 minutes, killing the entire purpose of saving actions.
Fair counter- it really depends. Webhooks is just another tool in the tool belt. Some situations it’s great, others not so much. It’s the awareness of webhooks and demystifying them - that’s the goal here
Hi sir. I have success build scenarios for autowish birthday. Trigger by date n i set time to trigger everyday 12.00 am, when no data no wish. But operation still running everyday. Regardless of all that, I want to ask, is it possible to trigger scenarios with the timestamp i created in google sheet? Let say, i have 3 time everyday to send my report to group (with Whatsapp API), but i need sent to variable time everyday. May God bless you
I've done something similar to this using Google Appscripts. You setup a trigger and a script in Appscript that reads the spreadsheet and check's whether it's time. If it's time you just call the webhool using a HTTP function
I tried copy the step on XRay. My module: Webhooks(custom) > RSS (retrieve) and push pin. but, the webhook does not trigger any RSS data unless 1 manually tap on the pin. Did I miss something?
Whoever made this tutorial. Thanks. Wish I would have came across this before I wasted hours on nonsense. Finally a straightfoward approach.
Thank you! Our content team at www.XRay.Tech thanks you!

I`m searching for the same thing! Did you find out how to to this?
@@chris_rey hey Chris! Yesss I found out how to sort this out!

@@chris_rey the reason why our scenario is completed everytime the scenario run once is because our “max number of cycle” is defaultedly set to “1”

Thanks for all the valuable video content! Is it possible to use webhooks with Notion to trigger a workflow in make?
Thanks!
Notion currently can't send webhooks, but it can still has automation abilities. You can see them all right here: xray.tools/app/notion
Any settings I need to turn on to have that magnifying glass at 6:20 ?
Ah, the elusive magnifying glass! It’s like trying to find Waldo in a sea of stripes. Just toggle the 'Zoom' setting and you’ll be all set!

Google sheets, no.
Airtable, yes! (Even on the free plan)

How to do this in Coda or Notion?
You want to trigger automations from coda & notion- or you want to update content in coda/Notion after the automation is triggered?
Is it possible to start before Watch RSS feed?
You can kick things off whenever you want, every journey begins with a single step!
I tried copy the step on XRay.
My module:
Webhooks(custom) > RSS (retrieve)
and push pin.
but, the webhook does not trigger any RSS data unless 1 manually tap on the pin. Did I miss something?
