How to send few details on a card through trello butler from a post webhook

[Fahad Sheji]

Hey, I want to use a button on a Trello card to send details to another application (Make/Integromat)

I tried to use the butter automation on Trello for posting webhooks and couldn't figure out how to send a few details of the card in the webhook.

The things I want to send are 

• Card ID
• Board ID
• Name of the card (optional)
• Custom fields 1, 2 and 3 (optional)

Could anyone help me with this

also, which should I use, payload or header? I am new to webhooks so not sure how this goes

What you are doing is http request … see

https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/issuing-http-requests/

and additionally you need to include the variables in the payload

for custom fields the variable is {{%customfieldname}}

Thanks, I want to send the board ID and Card ID which is {boardid} & {cardid}.

I read the link but couldn't figure out how to send the HTTP request, The one's I send get an error.

Could you help me out figure out what am doing wrong.

This is the post webhook I created but it doesn't work and I get an error

@Fahad Sheji 

payload should look something like

{"Board ID" : "{boardid}", "Card ID" : "{cardidlong}"}

Normal I work with cardidlong but if your endpoint is expect cardid go ahead and change it. 

Make sure you have all the {, } and double quotes as shown.

Thanks a lot, that worked. Are you aware of any video's on webhooks so I could learn on how to create them like this instance

btw am curious to know why we put brackets for the webhook code and also why we put ( " ) that between each word

It is just the specification and it is consistent with json definition for key/value.

How could I pull what is in front of the text NAME: and send the name in the webhook, example: in the description of my card I have:

Name: John Doe

a brief fictional description here:

I would like to pull and send the name jhon doe in the webhook,

How do I insert the playload to get this information that is in the card description.
