#Overview
You can use webhooks (aka “outbounds”) in KlickTipp to send data back to your WordPress site using WP Fusion.
Using webhooks you can create new users on your WordPress site based on actions in KlickTipp, or update existing users’ meta data and tags.
#Setup
In your KlickTipp account, head to Automatisierung » Outbounds » Neuer Outbound to create a new outbound.
Enter a name for your outbound, and select an activation trigger, for example when a tag is applied or a contact is updated.
In the Activation URL, enter the URL to your site following the examples below. Make sure to include your access key, which you can find on the general tab in the WP Fusion settings.
For the Request method, select POST.
Then click Add fields and select Subscriber ID from the dropdown. The Subscriber ID is the only field required by WP Fusion.
Click Save and Test to test your webhook.
In the WP Fusion logs on your site, you should see the incoming webhook, followed by a message that contact ID 12345 was not found. This is normal, since 12345 is not a real contact ID, it’s just used when testing the webhook.
If you see this message, your webhooks are working.
If you don’t see any activity in the logs, verify your webhook URL, and then review our webhook troubleshooting guide, as it’s possible the webhook is being blocked by a firewall or security rule.
#Webhook URL parameters
You can format your webhook URL in a few different ways to customize the behavior:
#To update a user’s tags
To update an existing WordPress user’s tags from the contact record, the URL for the webhook should look like the following:
https://mydomain.com/?wpf_action=update_tags&access_key=YOURACCESSKEY
#To update a user’s tags and meta data
To update a user’s tags and pull any new meta data from KlickTipp for that contact, the URL for the webhook should look like the following:
https://mydomain.com/?wpf_action=update&access_key=YOURACCESSKEY
#Create a new user
To create a new user, use the following URL:
https://mydomain.com/?wpf_action=add&access_key=YOURACCESSKEY
You can also specify additional parameters in user creation. For example, to send the user a welcome email containing a link to log in on your site, use the following:
https://mydomain.com/?wpf_action=add&access_key=YOURACCESSKEY&send_notification=true
You can also specify a specific user role to be assigned to the new user. For example, to set the new user to the “customer” role, use the following:
https://mydomain.com/?wpf_action=add&access_key=YOURACCESSKEY&role=customer
Note that you have to have registered a “customer” role on your site for this to work. By default users will be assigned the role of “subscriber”.
The add method will update a user if an existing user already exists. It will not create a duplicate user.
user_login and user_pass on your website, the new users will be given the usernames and passwords stored in their KlickTipp contact record.#User passwords
New user accounts will be created with an automatically generated password. If you’d like to use this password in your email marketing, you can send the password back to KlickTipp after it has been generated.
In the Webhooks section of the General settings tab, check the box for Return Password, and select a field in KlickTipp where the password should be stored.
After a new user is created, their automatically generated password will now be saved back to their contact record, and you can use a merge field to include it in an email. The username will be the contact’s email address.
