Set Up a Webhook
Webhooks let you push data into your table from any external tool or service. Whenever something happens outside — a form submission, a payment, a CRM update — the webhook creates or updates rows in real time.
It is like giving your table an API endpoint that listens for incoming data.
When to use it
- You want to trigger automations in Sync GTM from external events
- You use tools like Zapier, Make.com, Webflow, Stripe, or Airtable
- You want to populate a table without manual imports
- You want to trigger downstream AI agents or actions as soon as data arrives
Step-by-step guide
- Go to your Sync GTM table
- Click Table → Import → Set Up a Webhook
- Copy your unique Webhook URL
- In your external tool (Make, Zapier, or your own app), send a POST request to that URL
- Inside Sync GTM you will see the incoming payload — map its keys to your table columns
- Click Create Rows
- Done — Sync GTM auto-creates a new row each time that webhook receives data
From there you can trigger AI agents, enrichment actions, or exports — completely on autopilot.
Common use cases
- A form submission or demo request creates a row, gets enriched, and lands in your CRM with nobody touching it
- Events from Stripe, Webflow, Zapier or Make create rows the moment they happen
- Inbound signups get qualified and scored before a rep ever sees them
- A trial signup fires an enrichment chain and a Slack alert in the same run
Best practices
- Send one sample payload first and map the keys before you point production traffic at the URL
- Treat the webhook URL as a secret — anyone who has it can create rows in your table
- Parse JSON the payload into columns before anything enriches from it
- Put a dedupe step in front of enrichment; retries and double submits are normal
- Use Auto Run so arriving rows enrich themselves instead of waiting for someone to click
Where to next
- HTTP Request — the other direction: call an API from a column
- Table webhooks — where the URL lives in table settings
- Parse JSON — break the payload into usable fields
- API Key — authenticating calls to Sync GTM
