Webhooks - Embed Photo into email, or extend Photo URL Token Timer

MattReeves_SpokaneValley — Wed, 09 Oct 2024 18:36:32 GMT

I currently am using Make.com for a good amount of webhooks and scenarios to send emails for various situations and data types.

However, one thing that I have not been able to accomplish is to either embed the photo(s) collected with the QuickCapture app into the triggered email. OR extending the PhotoURL token timer.

I have been able to successfully embed the PhotoURL, but the token for the Photo expires rather quickly, so by the time my users are clicking on the link, the photo is no longer available.

Can someone make some suggestions on how to be able to view this photo in the email?

Currently what we are doing, is linking into a WebApp Application via the email, and the users click the link from the email to be taken to the newly entered point. We are however beginning to notify individuals that do not have ArcGIS Online accounts and I am really hoping that we can just include a photo in the email, or a long lasting photo token URL.

Thanks,

Our team is currently implementing the same solution you've identified above using Make.com and are also struggling with the PhotoURL token timeout issue. Have you learned anything new since you originally posted your question?

The following scenario will add the attachment to an email:

Configure the QuickCapture module to point to the appropriate QuickCapture project/layer.

Iterate through the attachments in the webhook payload:

Make a HTTP (Get a file) request to get the attachment(s):

Use an Array aggregator to aggregate the attachments, using the Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook) - Create and send message Target structure type. Use the HTTP - Get a file for the Attachments=>File option.

Set the aggregator output as the Attachments property.

Thank you for adding this information. I appreciate it. This seems to be a good solution for QuickCapture, but do you have a method to do the same thing with Field Maps? It appears that the Attachment Info is passed through the webhook in QuickCapture, but I do not see that it is available via the Field Maps webhook. I know my original ask was for QuickCapture, but our editing teams have moved on to using almost exclusively Field Maps.
