I’m using [Webhooks for Sheets addon](https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/webhooks_for_sheets/860288437469) for my spreadsheet to be able to receive webhooks from anywhere. And then I’m trying to send a webhook from Glide. Generally it all works, but what i’ve noticed is the data continues to come to the spreadsheet. I only press the button once in Glide, but it continues to add new rows with exact the same data (even timestamps) with a few minutes interval. So what’s happening here?) Am I doing something wrong? Or the problem is in the addon script maybe? Will appreciate any help, thank you in advance. ---

While I was writing this post 4 new rows were added. This is crazy) ---

I think Glide will retry the web hook if it thinks it failed. The add-on you’re using may not be telling Glide that the webhook was successfully received (For example, it might be sending an error code back to Glide). ---

A CEO should not have to do tech support on the weekends or at all really. ---

🤔 Addon returns the following object: ```auto { status: "success", message: "data logged successfully" } ``` May be it should return 200 instead? (Btw, I find it super cool, when you reply yourself, thank you for that🤗) ---

> [@11183](#): > > `status: "success",` Interesting issue! Maybe, Glide is waiting for a status code/number to process the operation but instead, a status text is received and there is no way to validate all. Have you tested your Webhooks using another tool? E.g: [Webhook.site - Test, process and transform emails and HTTP requests](https://webhook.site/#!/b08698cd-3b21-4423-9715-13bb4ffa9c39) Saludos! ---

Yes, I’ve tested webhooks with Postman and it worked perfect. ---

Oh, my bad) You mean testing webhook **receiving** , not sending) So I’ve tested it using the platform you suggested. Works fine, no duplicates. ---

Okay, after some research and practice I think that the problem definitely is in Addon itself. Because I learned how to write a custom script to catch webhooks without any addons (thanks to [this post](https://blog.runscope.com/posts/tutorial-capturing-webhooks-with-google-sheets)) and my script works perfect with Glide — no duplicates or other problems. So I think we could close the topic) Thanks to everyone, guys. Oh, btw, if you’re still interested in this issue, you can go and install the addon and peek the script. I have not enough practice with coding to find the problem, so may be some of you could. ---
