UIB Sandbox Access request.
The webhook URL will be receiving a webhook payload as an input.
Get the web hook URL from the application you want to send data
use that URL in webhook section of the application you want to receive data from
choose type of events you want to application to notify you about

This is my first attempt to make a bot application on twitter
but there are some requirements to connect api and i don't understand..
there need callback url, where can i get callback url?
can it use localhost?
You will only need a functional callback URL if you plan on building an app that users will log in to. If you already are able to get the access token and key for your bot account then you can use http://localhost in the callback URL field.
I have deployed an Express app on Heroku, set my web hook on the address and use my DG agent to make post request to the endpoint on Heroku.
The webhook passes over parameters's body to another web service and that's fine. I need to keep track of the cookie the web service passes back in order to send it back to keep the context of the conversation.
At the moment I am saving a file on the server with the Express's session id (req.session.id) and the cookie value. Everything works if I make POST call via Postman or via form, so let's say the web application is tracking sessions properly.
On the contrary, if I test my webhook with the DialogFlow agent, I receive a new session id per each request to my endpoint on Heroku.
I don't understand why... What am i missing?
I do not believe you can rely on the request from DialogFlow maintaining a cookie for you.
We are using DialogFlow, Google Actions, and Node.js. We retain session information by including data in the response we send back, which we then read when the next request comes in. When writing a response we put our session data (JSON) on the assistant.data attribute. When receiving a request we get session data from the incoming event.body.
We had considered trying to live off a unique ID of the incoming request, such as a user ID or device ID, but did not pursue it.
Is it legal to send custom requests using my own cookie? For example if I login to a website that provides e-mails and I found that I can send a request like: somewebpage.com?email_id=1&cookie_token=123 then can I send a custom request using eg app written in c++ to get all my emails (by changing email_id)?
I am struggling to understand how to implement a Google login. This is currently where I am at:
The client loads a default static HTML page from the server with a login button. Once clicking the login button it redirects them to the /login endpoint on my server. This redirects the user to the Google login and then consent page. Once the user logs into Google it redirects them to the /oauth2callback endpoint on my server. The response from Google contains the token that I need to get all the user info that I need. After I get the info from Google's services I need a way to send this info to the client in a JSON format. This info will be used in order for the client to connect to a websocket endpoint on my server.
I don't understand how I can send this info to the client. The client has been redirected to pages with no GET requests made to my server so I cannot send a JSON response. I don't want the client to make an additional GET request to the server if at all possible. How can I send the data I need to to the client?
I'm guessing your oauth2callback redirects to, or serves a page to your user. How about setting the JSON into a cookie that your JavaScript can then parse.
I'm using a SaaS for my AWS instance monitoring and Mandrill for email sending/campaigns.
I had created a simple chart with Zapier but I'd rather like to host it myself. So my question is:
How can I receive a webhook signal from Mandrill and then send it to Datadog from my server? Then again I guess hosting this script right on the same server I'm monitoring would be a terrible idea...
Basically I don't know how to "receive the webhook" so I can report it back to my Datadog service agent so it gets updated on their website.
I get how to actually report the data to Datadog as explained here http://docs.datadoghq.com/api/ but I just don't have a clue how to host a listener for web hooks?
Programming language isn't important, I don't have a preference for that case.
Here you can find how to add a new webhook to your mandrill account: https://mandrillapp.com/api/docs/webhooks.php.html#method=add
tha main thing here is this:
$url = 'http://example/webhook-url';
this is your webhook URL what will process the data sent by mandrill and forward the information to Datadog.
and this is a description about what mandrill will send to your webhook URL: http://help.mandrill.com/entries/21738186-Introduction-to-Webhooks
a listener for webhooks is nothing else then a website/app which triggers an action if a request comes in. Usually you keep it secret or secure it with (http basic) authentication. E.g. create a website called http://yourdomain.com/hooklistener.php. You can then call it with HTTP POST or GET and pass some data like hooklistener.php?event=triggerDataDog or with POST and send data along with the body. You then run a script or anything you want to process that event.
A "listener" is just any URL that you host where you can receive data that is posted to it. Keep in mind, since you mentioned Zapier, you can set up a trigger that receives the webhook data - in this case the listener URL is provided by Zapier, and you can then send that data into any application (or even post to another webhook). Using Zapier is nice because it doesn't require you to write the listener code that receives the hook data and does something with it.
