Microsoft Automate

Does QuickCapture support webhooks using Microsoft Automate (previously Flow)? We'd like to create a webhook for emailing a group when a capture is submitted.

Hi Adam

There are no QuickCapture modules for Power Automate, meaning that you can't configure QuickCapture webhooks in Power Automate automatically. However, if you create a webhook in Power Automate, you can copy the webhook URL and use it to manually configure the webhook for a project in the QuickCapture web designer (in project settings=>Webhooks).

Once the project is configured and downloaded, the app will call the webhook URL each time a record is uploaded, passing through the submission payload.

I hope this helps.

Thanks

John

Hi @AdamCrateau and @JohnathanHasthorpe

Did you ever get a QuickCapture webhook working with Microsoft Power Automate?

I had a go today with no luck.

I added a "When a HTTP request is received" connector paired with just a simple action to save a file. Saved it and grabbed the generated url. I did a quick sanity test of sending a payload to that url using Postman and was able to see the flow kick in and the file generate.

I then created a webhook in QuickCapture, activated it and collected a few records. I verified that the records had arrived in the feature layer. But the Power Automate flow never registered anything and I don't know why. It didn't even fire and record an error message.

Any suggestions?

Hi @PaulHaakma could you get a QuickCapture webhook working with Microsoft Power Automate?

Hi @JohnathanHasthorpe could you please tell me how can I create the webhook in Power Automate for QuickCapture. I did it before for Survey123 following these instructions https://support.esri.com/es/technical-article/000025025 is there something similar for QuickCapture?

Thanks

No I didn't sorry, so I'm not sure whether the issue was how I was configuring Power Automate or QuickCapture.

HI Paul,

This should work. Can you test the Windows build of QuickCapture and make sure that the webhook URL is being called (using a http debugger)?

The above worked for me today.

Thanks

John

@alvarospm - Are you using ArcGIS Enterprise?

Re: Microsoft Automate

alvarospm — Mon, 07 Mar 2022 07:46:21 GMT

Yes @JohnathanHasthorpe I am using ArcGIS Enterprise, a Portal

Re: Microsoft Automate

As QuickCapture does not have a connector for Power Automate, the Survey123 steps in https://support.esri.com/es/technical-article/000025025 will not work. You can only use Power Automate with ArcGIS Online for QuickCapture (Not ArcGIS Enterprise).

Cheers

John

Thank you @JohnathanHasthorpe, I hope it will be possible soon.

Do you know if I can use Integromat for QuickCapture ArcGIS Enterprise?

New to the thread here, I was able to get this to work with Power Automate to send the email after HTTP request, however I can only get it to show the "body" in the email, even if I use the json parser tool in automate, it does find the variables after parsing but wont display them in email. just the raw payload form quick capture in body. Was anyone able to to parse this?

Thanks for Your screenshot. Can You please share the Microsoft Flow template for all QuickCapture events (project details, server response, submitted record, user information, portal information)?

From Your screenshot, i can just guess the template for the event "project details":

{ "type": "object", "properties": { "projectInfo": { "type": "object", "properties": { "projectItemId": { "type": "string" }, "projectTitle": { "type": "string" }, "serviceItemId": { "type": "string" }, "serviceUrl": { "type": "string" } } } } }

Unfortunately, I don't have any possibility to see the incoming json payload (raw) in Flow which would help me to derive the template.

Also, the Esri documentation does not give any hint with regard to QC webhooks. On the other side, there are several examples and blog posts for administrative webhooks and Feature Service webhooks.

I used Fiddler to get the webhook payload. It looks like this for me:

@JohnathanHasthorpe -

Can you now use Power Automate with ArcGIS Enterprise for QuickCapture?

Also, would you please be able to provide QuickCapture connector steps link for Power Automate?

Thank you,
Abi

@alvarospm -

Do you now have a QuickCapture connector for Power Automate? Are you now able to create a webhook in Power Automate for ArcGIS Enterprise QuickCapture?

Thank you,
Abi
