Butler: POST URL using card content

[john]

I'd like to use Butler to POST to an endpoint. The endpoint requires a dynamic JSON payload.

My thought is to pull this from the card description and / or custom fields.

So if I had a card description of:

firstField: foo
secondField: bar

Then I want to pass a payload to Butler like so:

{
  "firstField": "foo",
  "secondField": "bar"
}

Is this possible?

@john I doubt it, your best bet is to email from Butler using a fixed text format in the email, pull those out of the email format using Zapier's email parser then post to your endpoint using Zapier's webhook tool.

Alternatively, you could use Trellinator which allows you to do similar notification processing that Butler does but then use Google Apps Script to post a custom JSON payload to the endpoint in question:
