We’d like to create an outbound notification by sending (http POST) a message to a 3rd party API endpoint on certain events. We are looking to use the built-in triggering and scripting features of Airtable. Has anyone tried to do something similar?

Thanks!

Yes, communicating with a third party api is a very common use case for scripting, and I have written many scripts for clients that do so. See the documentation for more info on using fetch in scripting and it’s limitations.
