Custom Object and Webhooks

[Anonymous]

Hi,

After participating in custom object 2.0, I am now able to create custom objects on my own. I now need to populate it. My initial use case, is to dump the form-submit data in this custom object for a form submit reporting.

I read custom objects can only be populated using API. Is it possible to use marketo webhooks to call API (rest or SOAP?) and insert data in the custom object.

Thanks

Deepak

Yes it is possible to use Marketo Webhooks to call rest or SOAP API.

Thanks Alok. Do you have any code snippets (or configuration) on the Webhooks as well as SOAP API that I can use as reference? I am new to "technology"

Alok Ramsisaria​ This isnt strictly true. Yes Marketo can send data to external systems, but trying to send data from a Marketo webhook directly to your Marketo REST or SOAP endpoints will be blocked. The webhook will just time out. Self Referencing Webhook Timeout
