Native Push Integrations
Learn how to push data directly from your own apps into VACN.
Step-by-Step Guide
Instantly triggering VACN via API.
Select the Trigger
When creating a Bridge, change the Trigger Type to "Incoming Webhook (Push)". Because your app is pushing data to us, you don't need to provide a source URL or a schedule. VACN will run instantly the millisecond data hits its server.
Get Your Secret URL
After you click "Save Changes", VACN will generate a unique, secure API endpoint for this specific Bridge. You will see it highlighted in blue on the Edit page.
Example Endpoint:
https://app.vacn.org/api/incoming/4?token=5f3a-9b1c...
Push Data from Your App
In your own application (like my.webdesigndaddy.com), write a script that sends a POST request containing a JSON body to your secret VACN endpoint.
Example Payload from your App:
{
"author_name": "Anne",
"blog_title": "10 Ways to Automate",
"blog_content": "Full text goes here..."
}
Format and Distribute
VACN instantly receives the JSON keys you sent (like author_name and blog_content) and converts them into variables. You can then feed them into an AI Parser or inject them straight into a Webchat payload!
