Webhook Fails to Update Marketo Field

[#1]

Issue

The Call Webhook flow is successful but the Marketo field mapped is not updated.

Solution

Marketo can translate data received by a Webhook to a lead field. If the fields are not getting updated:

• Check if the Response types are JSON or XML. The correct response type must be selected in order to map properties of the response back to lead fields in Marketo
• Check if the fields are blocked from Updates in field management.
• If the response type is XML, all elements in the XML hierarchy must be referenced in the mapping.

For example: If the XML is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The Response attribute must be:

soap:Envelope.soap:Body.GetDealerByPostcodeResponse.GetDealerByPostcodeResult.diffgr:diffgram.NewDataSet.Table.dl_tradingName

All the elements need to be referenced in the top down approach.
