How toNotification channels
Connect a POST webhook (Zapier, n8n, Make)
Send LoudPixel alerts as JSON POSTs to any HTTPS endpoint — Zapier, n8n, Make, or your own backend. Optional Bearer auth.
The generic webhook is the automation escape hatch: route alerts into Zapier/n8n/Make and from there into your CRM, a Google Sheet, PagerDuty — anywhere.
Steps
- Create an inbound webhook in your tool:
- Zapier: trigger Webhooks by Zapier → Catch Hook → copy the custom URL.
- n8n: add a Webhook node (method POST) → copy the production URL.
- Make: add a Custom webhook module → copy the URL.
- Your own backend: any HTTPS endpoint that accepts
POSTwith a JSON body.
- Paste into LoudPixel. Account → Notifications → toggle POST Webhook on → paste into Endpoint URL.
- Optional auth. If the endpoint needs it, fill Bearer token — sent as
Authorization: Bearer <token>on every request. - Save → Send test, then check your tool's run/inbox history.
Payload shape
Alerts arrive as a JSON POST:
{
"version": "1.0",
"title": "🚨 LoudPixel citation alert — yourdomain.com",
"message": "Citation rate (22%) is below recommended minimum of 30%.\nCurrent citation rate: 22%",
"type": "info"
}Build automations against title and message — they are the stable fields.
Troubleshooting
- Test fails immediately — the URL must start with
http(s)://. Endpoints behind basic-auth aren't supported; use the Bearer field instead. - Zapier shows nothing — make sure the Zap is turned on, or use the "Test trigger" view which listens for the next incoming request.
