How do I test webhook so the variables populate https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1307376267955273779/IMG_5975.jpg?ex=673a1488&is=6738c308&hm=b84b7478d2b925a317e919f14ffa0debdc9a06b13153706ff1b6ba55fbdb73e3& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1307376268685348915/IMG_5976.jpg?ex=673a1488&is=6738c308&hm=f02c6fab5721950a6627451c3f9ddec1c57a9ad6b4e82f9bd4ec3211d9a2eaed& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1307376269985317025/IMG_5977.jpg?ex=673a1488&is=6738c308&hm=72586995e234b085f4a8c3d891c47a86e4061f659504924e5367725076b133d4& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1307376271277166683/IMG_5978.jpg?ex=673a1488&is=6738c308&hm=2462a900d684f6a352cad8cb005b538571a42c256a1dd340d20382ceb677eaf2& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1307376272674000997/IMG_5979.jpg?ex=673a1489&is=6738c309&hm=8ee2f2b8652f30d251cab67f9dab0ec5572cb5911e2fabe10fb3e1a5e4540fbb&

@Luckyy To test a webhook and ensure that variables populate correctly, you can follow these steps: 1. **Prepare the Payload**: Determine the expected structure of the payload your webhook should receive. This includes all the necessary variables and their data types. 2. **Create a Test Event**: Craft a JSON object that matches the expected payload. Make sure to include all the necessary variables with test values. 3. **Send a Test Request**: Use a tool like Postman, cURL, or any HTTP client to send a POST request to your webhook URL with the JSON payload. 4. **Inspect the Response**: Check the response from your webhook endpoint. A successful test will result in a 200 OK status code, indicating that the webhook received the payload and processed it as expected. 5. **Verify Variable Population**: Ensure that the variables in your system are populated with the values from the test payload. This might involve checking logs, database entries, or any other place where the webhook data is used. 6. **Debug if Necessary**: If the variables are not populating as expected, check for any errors in the webhook handler code, validate the payload structure, and ensure that the endpoint is correctly parsing and using the incoming data. Would you like to send a test request now? If so, please provide the webhook URL and the sample payload you'd like to use.
You can continue this conversation by mentioning me in the message.

I tested it it said 200 ok
I see these headings
But none for time zone year and date
@Vapi

@Luckyy It's great to hear that you received a 200 OK status, which means the webhook endpoint is reachable and responding correctly. If you're seeing headings for certain variables but not for time zone, year, and date, it's possible that these variables were not included in the payload, or the webhook is not configured to handle them. To resolve this, you can: 1. **Check the Payload**: Ensure that the time zone, year, and date variables are included in the test payload you're sending. 2. **Review Webhook Configuration**: Look at the webhook code or settings to confirm that it's set up to parse and use the time zone, year, and date from the incoming payload. 3. **Update and Retest**: If any changes are made to include the missing variables, send another test request to verify that they are now being populated correctly. If you need further assistance with this, please provide more details or ask support for more info on this.

How do I check the payload @Vapi
v
@Luckyy To check the payload that you're sending to your webhook, you can follow these steps: 1. **Review Your Test Event**: If you're using a tool like Postman or a script to send the test payload, look at the body of the request you're sending. It should be in JSON format and contain the fields for time zone, year, and date if you expect them to be processed by the webhook. 2. **Check Webhook Logs**: If your webhook service provides logging, review the logs to see what data is being received. This can help you verify that the payload sent from your test tool is arriving as expected. 3. **Use Debugging Tools**: Services like RequestBin or Webhook.site allow you to send your payload to their URL, and they will display exactly what was received. This can be a helpful way to confirm the content of your payload. 4. **Inspect Code**: If you have access to the code that generates the payload, review it to ensure that the time zone, year, and date fields are being included and populated correctly. 5. **Manual Check**: If you're manually crafting the payload, double-check the JSON structure and the field names to ensure they match what the webhook expects. If you'd like, you can share the payload here, and I can help you review it to ensure that it contains the necessary information for time zone, year, and date.

Can you get a human to reply @Vapi

@Luckyy Please ask support for more info on this.

@User
@Vapi I did a test call and the webhook worked correct but the variables aren’t showing how do I fix this
v
@Luckyy If the webhook is working correctly but the variables such as time zone, year, and date are not showing up, you may need to adjust the payload or the webhook code to ensure these variables are captured and displayed properly. Here's what you can do: 1. **Review the Payload**: Make sure that the payload you're sending includes the missing variables. The JSON should have keys for time zone, year, and date with appropriate values. 2. **Check Webhook Code**: If you have access to the webhook's code, verify that it's programmed to extract and handle these variables from the incoming payload. 3. **Update Webhook Configuration**: If the webhook is configured through a user interface, ensure that the settings are correct to process the additional variables. 4. **Check Documentation**: Review the documentation for the service or API you're using to ensure you're following the correct format and naming conventions for the variables. 5. **Debugging**: Add logging to your webhook code to output the received payload to a log file or console. This can help you see what data is being received and whether the variables are being extracted correctly. 6. **Test with a Simplified Payload**: Try sending a minimal payload with only the variables you're having issues with to isolate the problem. If you're still having trouble, please provide more details about the payload structure and the webhook setup, and I'll do my best to assist you further.

Hey @Luckyy sorry but i am unable to understand it completely. If understood correctly you want to test tool webhooks if is correct then you have to make an call to test it out, else if is not correct then please brief me more as:- - What response you expected to get - What response you actually got instead This would really help me figure out what went wrong!
l
Hello I tested the webhook but the data wasn’t going through
I was seeing this
But I setup one for time_zone
In his video the headings are correct
Mine aren’t
I think it’s something I’m doing wrong with api and function tools
s
Did you get chance to fix this?
l
No idk how to fix api
Are you able to fix for me and tell me the issue on why data isn’t transferring to make.com
s
Can you summarise the issue again for me to help you better.
l
So I have a make.com automation and when I input the variables into make the variables I need don’t show eg time_zone I think it’s an issue on the api setup I don’t think I did it correctly but I can’t figure out how to do it
It should show like the below pic
But it doesn’t it shows like this
s
@Luckyy so you want to send timezone from the assitant to your server (make) using tools calling and it doesn't appears in the tool payload if this is correct then please share the call id.
l
How do I find the call ID yes that’s correct
s
1. Goto Vapi Dashboard 2. On the left side of the dashboard, click on Logs. Then it will expand a sub menu. 3. Now click on Calls, after that you will be taken to call logs page. Copy the call id of the most recent call with the issue mentioned. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1307376266902634616/1311225112204148786/Screenshot_2024-11-27_at_12.30.16_PM.png?ex=6748150c&is=6746c38c&hm=26f1a32d28329ba96a390c8fbbf515074292263a5474d1d2505e66ba3091ebf5&

sorry for delay been ILL
basically i am trying to build a call bot that can book appointments using calendar
i was follwoing this video but got stuck
here you can see my values dont show the same webhook fields as the below screenshot
this is my vapi tools-
@Shubham Bajaj does that make sense sorry if im not clear
s
@Luckyy you need to pass the timezone to the call context, I looked into the logs. Pass a timezone variable as assistant overrides into the assistant prompt and then it will work. Regarding the video I don't have context what it is all about but pass an assistant override and instructing your assistant on how to use it will make it work always.
