The built-in template "Post to a channel when a webhook request is received" does not seem to work

Posted on by 2
after using the built-in template "Post to a channel when a webhook request is received" I get an error after testing the Workflow by sending a webhook POOST with Python.
 
 
This is the script I am using although I have redacted the complete URL:
 
import requests
import json

# Define the Jira webhook URL
webhook_url = 'https://prod-86.westeurope.logic.azure.com:443/<...REDACTED...>'

# Sample payload to simulate a Jira webhook event
# Customize the payload according to the expected data structure
payload = {
    "timestamp": "2024-10-23T10:00:00Z",
    "webhookEvent": "jira:issue_updated",
    "issue": {
        "id": "10001",
        "key": "PROJECT-123",
        "fields": {
            "summary": "Test Issue Summary",
            "status": {
                "name": "In Progress"
            },
            "assignee": {
                "displayName": "John Doe"
            }
        }
    },
    "user": {
        "name": "user_name",
        "emailAddress": "user@example.com",
        "displayName": "User Full Name"
    }
}

# Optional headers (if your webhook requires authentication or specific content type)
headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    # 'Authorization': 'Bearer your_token_if_required'
}

# Send POST request to Jira webhook
try:
    response = requests.post(webhook_url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(payload))
    
    # Check response status
    if response.status_code == 200:
        print("Webhook test successful!")
        print(f"Response: {response.text}")
    else:
        print(f"Failed to trigger webhook. Status code: {response.status_code}")
        print(f"Response: {response.text}")

except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")
Is there something wrong with the template? Or is there something wrong with my script?

    Hey there, I was having issues with this as well as the documentation for these is basically non-existent but I've figured it out. Here's what you need to do.
     
    Step 1:
    The body of the request needs to be in the below format:
    {
           "type":"message",
           "attachments":[
              {
                 "contentType":"application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
                 "contentUrl":null,
                 "content":{
                    "$schema":"http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
                    "type":"AdaptiveCard",
                    "version":"1.2",
                    "body":[
                        {
                        "type": "TextBlock",
                        "text": "For Samples and Templates, see [https://adaptivecards.io/samples](https://adaptivecards.io/samples)"
                        }
                    ]
                 }
              }
           ]
        }
     
    Step 2:
    You can use the Adaptive Cards Designer to create your Adaptive card: https://adaptivecards.microsoft.com/designer
     
    Then just replace the "content" JSON with your Adaptive Card JSON you created in the Designer. 
     
    Example:
    {
      "type": "message",
      "attachments": [
        {
          "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
          "contentUrl": null,
          "content": {
            "type": "AdaptiveCard",
            "$schema": "https://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
            "version": "1.5",
            "body": [
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "**🤖 Test subject**",
                "wrap": true
              },
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "Test text here",
                "wrap": true
              }
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
     
    Step 3 (if necessary):
    Additionally, if Flow bot is not in the channel you can switch the "Post as" to be "User" and then it will post the message as the user who create the Workflow
