Webhooks in PlanRadar Connect
What You'll Learn
By the end of this article, you'll understand the difference between webhook-triggered and schedule-triggered recipes, how to set up and configure a webhook end-to-end, and which PlanRadar events support webhooks.
What Is a Webhook (and Why Use One)?
A webhook allows PlanRadar to proactively notify your recipe the moment a specific event occurs, rather than your recipe polling PlanRadar on a schedule to check for changes.
| Approach | How it works | Best for |
| Schedule trigger | Recipe runs at a fixed interval (e.g. every hour) and checks for changes | Batch processing, regular reports, non-time-sensitive workflows |
| Webhook trigger | PlanRadar pushes an event to your recipe the instant it happens | Real-time responses, event-driven automation |
Webhook-triggered recipes are more efficient (no unnecessary polling), more responsive (near-instant execution), and consume fewer tasks over time compared to high-frequency schedule triggers doing the same job.
Supported Webhook Events
PlanRadar provides webhooks for a range of events, including:
-
Ticket created
-
Ticket updated
-
User created
-
Layer created
-
…
Check the PlanRadar Settings → Account → Webhook****s section for the current full list of supported events, as this may expand over time.
Setting Up a Webhook: Step by Step
In PlanRadar Connect
-
Create a new recipe (or open an existing one).
-
Choose Workato Webhook as the trigger type.
-
Follow the guided set-up, it will generate a unique webhook URL for this recipe. Copy it.
In PlanRadar
-
Navigate to Settings → Account → Webhooks.
-
Click to create a new webhook.
-
Select the event you want to trigger on (e.g. Layer Created).
-
Select the relevant projects this webhook should apply to or leave it empty to apply to all.
-
Paste the webhook URL from PRC into the Notification URL field.
-
Save the webhook configuration.
Back in PlanRadar Connect
-
Trigger the event in PlanRadar (e.g. create a layer in one of the selected projects).
-
PRC will capture the incoming payload and automatically create the data tree from it.
-
The webhook trigger step will now expose all fields from the event payload as data pills for use in subsequent steps.
Tip: If you need to recapture the payload (e.g. after PlanRadar adds new fields to a webhook event), simply re-trigger the event from PlanRadar and PRC will update the data tree.
