Hola @Mark_Turrell

We have discussed this feature/solution before, when API column was released we thought we had the final solution to retrieve data fired by a Webhook (via Integromat or IFTTT) but there are still details to fix like how to handle the received data if it has many parameters, how to put it into Glide columns and don’t suffer a headache everyday 🤧

> The API column expects a result in a very specific format, and your API doesn’t provide that format (not its fault, it wasn’t built to work with Glide’s API column). You’ll have to either change the result format of that API, if it’s under your control, or implement a go-between server. The API column is also meant to just read data, not write it. You can’t (or rather, shouldn’t) use it to actuate a pump.

Anyway, API column is in development and we can’t use it.

But I think Yes-Code column can be used and useful for you. Of course, you aren’t going to create a Webhook, you will need to make an API call that PayHere supports by using a cURL command

The new challenge here with YC column is to fire it manually. YC is a computed column and doesn’t have an action to control it but I think we can figure out a workaround meanwhile.

I sent you weeks ago an email with this feature and idea if you want to review it and carry it out.

Saludos, feliz día!
