<p>You can use the <strong>Webhook</strong> component to start a flow run in response to an external event.</p>
<p>With the <strong>Webhook</strong> component, a flow can receive data directly from external sources. Then, the flow can parse the data and pass it to other components in the flow to initiate other actions, such as calling APIs, writing to databases, and chatting with LLMs.</p>
<p>The <strong>Webhook</strong> component provides a versatile entrypoint that can make your flows more event-driven and integrated with your entire stack of applications and services.
For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use an LLM to analyze the sentiment and content of customer feedback or survey responses.</li>
<li>Receive notifications from a monitoring system, and then trigger automated responses based on alert type and severity.</li>
<li>Integrate with e-commerce platforms to process orders and update inventory.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithHideOnScrollNavbar_WYt5" id="configure-the-webhook-component">Configure the Webhook component<a href="#configure-the-webhook-component" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Configure the Webhook component" title="Direct link to Configure the Webhook component"></a></h2>
<p>To use the <strong>Webhook</strong> component in a flow, do the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>In Langflow, open the flow where you want to use the <strong>Webhook</strong> component.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Add a <a href="/components-data#webhook"><strong>Webhook</strong> component</a> and a <a href="/components-processing#parser"><strong>Parser</strong> component</a> to your flow.</p>
<p>The <strong>Parser</strong> component extracts relevant data from the raw payload received by the <strong>Webhook</strong> component.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Connect the Webhook component&#x27;s <strong>Data</strong> output to the Parser component&#x27;s <strong>Data</strong> input.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the Parser component&#x27;s <strong>Template</strong> field, enter a template to parse the raw payload into structured text.</p>
<p>In the template, use variables for payload keys in the same way you would define variables in a <a href="/components-prompts"><strong>Prompt</strong> component</a>.</p>
<p>For example, assume that you expect your <strong>Webhook</strong> component to receive the following JSON data:</p>
<div class="ch-codeblock not-prose" data-ch-theme="github-dark"><div class="ch-code-wrapper ch-code" data-ch-measured="false"><code class="ch-code-scroll-parent"><br><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>{</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> &quot;id&quot;: &quot;&quot;,</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> &quot;name&quot;: &quot;&quot;,</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> &quot;email&quot;: &quot;&quot;</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>}</span></div></div><br></code></div></div>
<p>Then, you can use curly braces to reference the JSON keys anywhere in your parser template:</p>
<div class="ch-codeblock not-prose" data-ch-theme="github-dark"><div class="ch-code-wrapper ch-code" data-ch-measured="false"><code class="ch-code-scroll-parent"><br><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>ID: {id} - Name: {name} - Email: {email}</span></div></div><br></code></div></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Connect the Parser component&#x27;s <strong>Parsed Text</strong> output to the next logical component in your flow, such as a Chat Input component.</p>
<p>If you want to test only the Webhook and Parser components, you can connect the <strong>Parsed Text</strong> output directly to a Chat Output component&#x27;s <strong>Text</strong> input. Then, you can see the parsed data in the <strong>Playground</strong> after you run the flow.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>From the Webhook component&#x27;s <strong>Endpoint</strong> field, copy the API endpoint that you will use to send data to the Webhook component and trigger the flow.</p>
<p>Alternatively, to get a complete <code>POST /v1/webhook/$FLOW_ID</code> code snippet, open the flow&#x27;s <a href="/concepts-publish#api-access"><strong>API access</strong> pane</a>, and then click the <strong>Webhook cURL</strong> tab.
You can also modify the default curl command in the Webhook component&#x27;s <strong>cURL</strong> field.
If this field isn&#x27;t visible by default, click the Webhook component, and then click <strong>Controls</strong> in the component&#x27;s header menu.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Send a POST request with <code>data</code> to the flow&#x27;s <code>webhook</code> endpoint to trigger the flow.</p>
<p>The following example sends a payload containing <code>id</code>, <code>name</code>, and <code>email</code> strings:</p>
<div class="ch-codeblock not-prose" data-ch-theme="github-dark"><div class="ch-code-wrapper ch-code" data-ch-measured="false"><code class="ch-code-scroll-parent"><br><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>curl -X POST &quot;http://localhost:7860/api/v1/webhook/FLOW_ID&quot; \</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> -H &quot;Content-Type: application/json&quot; \</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> -H &quot;x-api-key: LANGFLOW_API_KEY&quot; \</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> -d &#x27;{&quot;id&quot;: &quot;12345&quot;, &quot;name&quot;: &quot;alex&quot;, &quot;email&quot;: &quot;alex@email.com&quot;}&#x27;</span></div></div><br></code></div></div>
<p>A successful response indicates that Langflow started the flow:</p>
<div class="ch-codeblock not-prose" data-ch-theme="github-dark"><div class="ch-code-wrapper ch-code" data-ch-measured="false"><code class="ch-code-scroll-parent"><br><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>{</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> &quot;message&quot;: &quot;Task started in the background&quot;,</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span> &quot;status&quot;: &quot;in progress&quot;</span></div></div><div><span class="ch-code-line-number">_<!-- -->10</span><div style="display:inline-block;margin-left:16px"><span>}</span></div></div><br></code></div></div>
<p>The output for the entire flow isn&#x27;t returned by the <code>webhook</code> endpoint.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>To view the flow&#x27;s most recent parsed payload, click the <strong>Parser</strong> component, and then click <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-text-search" aria-hidden="true"><path d="M21 6H3"></path><path d="M10 12H3"></path><path d="M10 18H3"></path><circle cx="17" cy="15" r="3"></circle><path d="m21 19-1.9-1.9"></path></svg> <strong>Inspect output</strong>.
For the preceding example, the parsed payload would be a string like <code>ID: 12345 - Name: alex - Email: alex@email.com</code>.</p>
</li>
</ol>

<p>The <strong>Parser</strong> component can fail to build if it doesn&#x27;t receive data from the <strong>Webhook</strong> component or if there is a problem with the incoming data.</p>
<p>If this occurs, try changing the Parser component&#x27;s <strong>Mode</strong> to <strong>Stringify</strong> so that the component outputs the parsed payload as a single string.</p>
<p>Then, you can examine the string output and troubleshoot your parsing template, or work with the parsed data in string form.</p>

<p>Typically, you won&#x27;t manually trigger the webhook component.
