How this automation works

Receive alerts through Overlord whenever your Webhook event runs. This Applet triggers when a Webhooks event is received and sends a custom message to Overlord with details about the event. Ideal for tracking automation events, reminders, or custom IoT triggers where accountability or confirmation is needed. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
