Mar 12, 2022
Need to move uploaded files from one step to another in the Ask? Follow the solution guide to use the pre-built webhook for that.
Want the automation but not the hassle of setup and maintenance?
With Managed integrations, we'll do all the heavy-lifting, so that you can focus on more important things!
This webhook is most often used in scenarios where you're collecting lots of documents from customers, usually in batches or rounds.
You want to move files out of the customer step so that customers don't accidentally delete what they previously uploaded. For example:
- After customers uploads their initial set of tax documents, perform a review, move their files to another step, then go back and ask customers for missing files
- After loan applicants uploads their initial set of financial statements, perform a review, move the files to another step, then go back and ask applicants for additional files
Solution Guide
Here's how to set this up.
Webhook
You can set up this webhook using either of these methods: as a Rule or as a Webhook Step.
Create a Rule to execute the Webhook right after the files are uploaded. This is the most common method.
Rule Setup
- If this field:
[field]
- With this condition:
Is Not Blank
- Then the item:
Webhook
- To Url:
/app/graphql/api/jobs/step-movefiles.aspx?step_number=[step]&to_step_number=[step]
Create a Webhook step if you need to guarantee order of execution or if there's no viable trigger.
Step Setup
- Step Type:
Webhook
- Url:
/app/graphql/api/jobs/step-movefiles.aspx?step_number=[step]&to_step_number=[step]
