Receive webhook requests with content type text/xml in Retool Workflows

Hi!

We are relying on a webhook trigger for one of our workflows. Unless I'm missing something, our issue is that the event source sends a request with a content type of text/xml, but it isn't being detected by the workflow. I assume this is because Retool Workflows can only receive and successfully parse requests with a content type of application/json. See the headers object below for reference:

This is a critical part of our application and we would love to be able to use a first-party solution through Retool rather than relying on third-party services like Zapier.

Thank you in advance :smiley:

Hi @jamierossiter, that is correct. Webhook events sent to the workflow endpoint must use Content-Type: application/json.

We have an existing internal feature request to support more content types. I added your feedback to it and we'll update you here with any news on it. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thank you Paulo :slight_smile:
