Use the HTTP Request Action in Automations

Overview

The HTTP Request action sends automation data to another app or service. Use it for custom integrations, alerts, internal tools, or workflows outside SocialBu.

Supported request type

• Method: POST

• Body type: JSON

• Request body: required and must be valid JSON

Steps

1. Open or create an automation in Automate.

2. Add an action and select HTTP Request.

3. Enter the destination URL.

4. Select POST and JSON.

5. Add a valid JSON body. You can include placeholders from the trigger or earlier actions where supported.

6. Save the automation and test it.

Using the response

If the request succeeds, SocialBu can make the response and success status available to later actions as action output placeholders.

Troubleshooting

• If the request fails, check that the URL is valid and reachable.

• Make sure the body is valid JSON.

• Check automation history to see errors and response data.
