⁠

What is the Picnie Webhook Feature?

In essence, the Picnie Webhook acts like a notification system.

The receiving application then processes the data contained in the webhook payload and takes appropriate actions based on the event that initiated the webhook.

How does it work?

For instance, if you wish to have the images you create on Picnie automatically sent to Pabbly Connect and subsequently recorded in your Google Sheet, you can achieve this. You'll need to obtain a webhook URL from Pabbly Connect and integrate it with Picnie. By linking your Google Sheet to the Pabbly Connect workflow, whenever you generate an image on Picnie, its URL will be added to your Google Sheet.

This process can be replicated for other applications like Airtable, Facebook, Instagram, Slack, and more.
