Workflows

provision-connection
Stand up a source, a destination, and a connection binding them.
Creates a fresh source and destination, then creates a connection that references both by id and verifies the connection was created.
4 steps inputs: connectionName, destinationName, destinationUrl, sourceName outputs: connectionId, destinationId, sourceId
1
createSource
Create a WEBHOOK source that will receive inbound requests from the upstream provider.
2
createDestination
Create an HTTP destination pointed at the supplied delivery URL.
3
createConnection
Create a connection that binds the new source and destination together by referencing their ids.
4
confirmConnection
Read the connection back to confirm it resolved both the source and the destination.

  title: Hookdeck Provision a Connection
  summary: Create a source, create a destination, then wire them together with a connection.
  description: >-
    The foundational Hookdeck setup pattern. The workflow creates a standalone
    source to receive inbound webhooks, creates a standalone destination to
    deliver them to, then creates a connection that binds the two by referencing
    their ids. A final read confirms the connection resolved both ends. Every
    step spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed
    without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
