Hi, I am successfully connecting a particle device to Azure but the data that is reaching Azure Event hub is not in the format I want. As described in https://docs.particle.io/guide/tools-and-features/webhooks/ I created a custom template providing the Json that I want to be forwarded to Azure, bu…

There was an update to the particle cli in the last couple weeks. Have you updated/installed the cli recently? If not, update by running npm update -g particle-cli. Then delete and recreate your webhook and try it again. Let me know how you make out.

Thanks for your reply. After updating the CLI, deleting and recreating the webhook with a custom template definition detailed above, I still see the following message on the dashboard (not following the template defined): {"data":"{\"payloadtype\": \"pinvalue\",\"pin\": \"D0\",\"value\": \"1\"}","…

After further testing I noticed that the custom template does in fact change the data as it is sent to Azure. But it does not change what is shown in the dashboard, so it creates confusion. Are is my test: The webhook: { "event": "simultemp2", "url": "https://myservice.servicebus.windows.net/…

I was just going to ask that exact question. I wondered whether the dashboard was showing the correct information. In your first post you asked why the dashboard shows “Undefined” for the data in the “hook-sent” entry. I don’t know the answer to that question, but I do know that my webhooks behave …

Despite the fact that the custom template does in fact change the data that is sent to Azure, it is strange to see that data is sent duplicate! All custom fields are still included in the data field … so a lot of spared space by sending duplicate info… ex from case above, from what arrives to event…

I was going to suggest using the http/https client libraries but I see that was suggested/tried in the thread you linked to without much success. The webhook framework is great for retrieving data from web APIs (having an intermediary that can parse out just the data you care about makes the code on…

Hi @bennettj1087 , Sorry about the slow response! At the moment the hook-sent is more just an event letting you know the hook was triggered and a request was sent, but it doesn’t also publish what data was sent to the target url. @tiagonmas good question! You can remove that duplicate default inf…

Hi, I have the same issue to populate a json post to google docs. When sending the webhook to Requestbin instead I see that the json is not populated by the information from the device publish() function json string of identical format. Any recomendations?

Since this isn't your thread, we don't know anything about your setup. how does your webhook definition look? how does your Particle.publish() command look? what does the particle cloud receive from your publish command? ... [image] endlessFancy: Any recomendations? Provide as much context…

It would be great to have a way to directly connect from the device to Azure as discussed here and these problems would not exist …
