Hi all,

I'm trying to get the sender's url (within a strip) for an incoming webhook call so that I can response to call only from a specific domain.  I'm wondering how do i do that?  Thanks!

EDIT Feb 24: I also need to get the sender's url for other reasons (such as deciding what the response will be); hence having access to it in the script serves multiple purposes.  Thanks!!!

Best Regards,

H8

Hi @h892_2 👋

I don't think you can access that info.

Do you control the webhook caller? If so you could add a secret value to the body which your automation looks for before doing its work.

I do not have access to the webhook caller.  If I can't have access to that.  It looks like I will have to setup some other service to "handle" the incoming webhook request first.  THANKS!
