Using Webhooks with Sparks
🚀 Overview
Webhooks are one of the most powerful automation tools available — and now, they work seamlessly with NSPECT Sparks.
A webhook is a way for one application to instantly send data to another as soon as an event happens. Unlike traditional APIs that require you to “pull” data, a webhook pushes data automatically in real-time. That means as soon as a Spark finishes running in NSPECT, we can send the results straight to your other systems — no manual exports, no waiting, no syncing delays.
With this feature, Sparks can now trigger any action in your workflow the moment field data is captured — updating spreadsheets, posting to project management tools, writing records to your CRM, or sending alerts to Slack, Teams, or custom dashboards.
This is an incredibly powerful way to make your data come alive and connect NSPECT to the rest of your world.
⚙️ How It Works
When a Spark completes, NSPECT automatically sends a JSON payload containing all of your Spark’s data to the webhook URL you specify in your Spark’s configuration.
It’s a simple “fire and forget” mechanism — once the Spark is done, the webhook is instantly triggered, passing along all relevant data from that event.
🧩 Setting Up a Webhook on Your Spark
Open Your Spark Configuration
Go to your Sparks dashboard, choose the Spark you want to integrate, and click Edit Spark.
Locate the Webhook Field
You’ll see a field labeled Webhook URL (or similar). This is where you’ll paste the endpoint of the system you want to send data to.
Enter Your Webhook Endpoint
Paste the URL of your webhook endpoint. This could be a URL from:
- Zapier or Make (formerly Integromat)
- A CRM or project management system
- A custom API endpoint you’ve built
Save Your Spark Configuration
Once saved, your Spark is now live and ready to send data automatically when it completes.
Test It
Run your Spark and watch your connected system receive the data in real time. It’s that simple.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip
Because NSPECT now connects with platforms like Zapier, your webhook can tie into over 8,000 apps — meaning you can build powerful workflows without writing a single line of code.
Example ideas:
- Send inspection summaries straight into Google Sheets
- Create work orders in Asana or Monday
- Trigger a follow-up email or SMS
- Log every Spark completion in your internal database
