Overview
This node interacts with the LearningSuite API to retrieve sample webhook data for various event types. Specifically, the "Get Webhook Sample Data" operation under the "Webhook" resource fetches example payloads representing different webhook event categories. This is useful for testing, debugging, or designing workflows that respond to these events without needing actual live webhook triggers.
Common scenarios include:
- Previewing the structure of webhook event data before setting up automation.
- Simulating webhook events in development environments.
- Understanding the payload format for custom processing or validation.
For example, a user might select the "Feedback Events" sample data type to see what data is sent when feedback is submitted, enabling them to build a workflow that reacts accordingly.

| - Exam Graded Events | |
| - Feedback Events | |
| - Group User Access Changed Events | |
| - Lesson Completed Events | |

| - Progress Changed Events |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the sample webhook data corresponding to the selected event type. Each object mimics the structure and fields of real webhook payloads from LearningSuite, allowing users to inspect and use this data in subsequent workflow steps.
If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would typically represent attachments or media related to the webhook event, but this node focuses on JSON data only.
Dependencies
- Requires a valid API key credential for authenticating with the LearningSuite API.
- The base URL for the API must be configured in the node credentials.
- No additional external services are required beyond the LearningSuite API.
Troubleshooting
- No handler error: If the node throws an error like
No handler for resource "webhook" and operation "getSampleData", ensure that the resource and operation names are correctly set as "webhook" and "getSampleData" respectively. - Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
- Empty or unexpected output: Confirm that the selected sample data type is supported and spelled correctly.
- Network issues: Check connectivity to the LearningSuite API endpoint and that the base URL is correct.
