Webhook Creation Error 203

post by rioncm on Jul 15, 2019

I’m receiving an error when I try to setup a webhook for one of my devices.

{"code":"203","error":"Error creating webhookwebhooks required"}

here is the API call I am making via PAW rest client.

POST /1/public/notification/webhook HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer my-bearer-code-000-00000000000
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Host: api.rach.io
Connection: close
User-Agent: Paw/3.1.8 (Macintosh; OS X/10.14.5) GCDHTTPRequest
Content-Length: 181

{
  "device": {"id":"my-rach-io-device-000000000000"},
  "externalId":"vnWestTest",
  "url":"[http://mqtt.myurl.com/rachio/vnwest](http://mqtt.myurl.com/rachio/vnwest)",
  "eventTypes": [
    {"id":"1"},
    {"id":"2"},
    {"id":"4"}
  ]
}

Any insights into what I am doing wrong?

Those types are not valid.

This will give you the valid types.

@franz is this the correct object I need to send to the api to create a new webhook? The eventTypes listed on the example in the documentation’s curl example seem to require an array of objects with id and value (e.g [{"id": "1"}]

Create the webhook

webhook_data = {
    "device": {
        "id": device_id
    },
    "externalId": "any_string_you_want",
    "url": webhook_url,
    "eventTypes": [
        {"name":"ZONE_STATUS","type":"WEBHOOK"}
    ]
}

Can you PM me the curl command you are using?
