I’ve successfully set up a webhook (with the help of @peekay123 and others in the community) and am sending data to my website which send email and sms messages based on the request. Every time I send a request, though, the script is run 5-6 times (which means 5-6 duplicate email/sms messages). For …

[image] Cleaning up Errors Cloud I’m sending a webhook to my webserver and it’s successfully inserting but I’m also getting an error. [image] I changed my webhook to only send my custom JSON message and I was hoping this would resolve the problem and it hasn’t. Any sugg…

@stuboo , what I see on the output doesn’t seem to match the code you posted on github. For example, I don’t see where “data” is sent. What are you expecting to be returned from your server?

@peekay123 What are you expecting to be returned from your server? A simple SUCCESS message. stuboo/venus_appliance/blob/master/notify.php#L246 $sms = ""; $pager = ""; $i++; } //print_r($_SERVER[R…

@BulldogLowell Thanks! That sounds like exactly what’s happening. If I have time later today, I’m gonna change my webhook endpoint, create a new webhook, and try again.

@stuboo , the publish() in the github code is sending “String(value)”, and not “data” so the code does not match what the output of the publish is doing. @BulldogLowell is correct that the problem you are having is related to the webhook issue, especially if you have several deleted iterations of yo…

sorry, not a problem that I suffer, I just observed others having the issues.

@peekay123 Clearly, I’m not following you regarding the publish() command. String(value) is the data I want to pass. Particle.publish("venus", String(value), 60, PRIVATE); Care to write out the statement the way you think it should be written? As it stands, it seems to be passing the data that I …

I guess the use of String(value) is a bit confising since value already is a string. You’d usually only use String() to convert a non-string into a string.

@stuboo , as I believe I indicated before, I don’t see how you are passing “data” via your webhook to your server. Your webhook makes no reference to “data”. If you do want to pass “value” via your webhook, you need to format it as a json object.

@peekay123 The “data” is being posted as a GET request to the php script on my sever. I used this tutorial to guide me through the process… https://docs.particle.io/guide/tools-and-features/webhooks/#lets-make-some-graphs In the tutorial, they do sent some JSON as a parameter in the request, but t…
