Slack message: variables

Cyroq — Question ·

Hi! I'm using Pabbly to link a webhook (triggered on a website) to a bot in Slack. I'm having the problem that the message field in Action for Slack retrieves the response as a html-formatted string. For example, the value of the message in the webhook is "This is my quote!". But what I see in the Action field is "Quote=This-is-my-quote%21". And that's the string that is sent to Slack, which is not what I need.

Did I set up the workflow incorrect? How can I pass the string in the right way?

Hi @Cyroq,

Pabbly Connect doesn't display the response in HTML format unless it is received in that format from the source. Please test the webhook response on webhook.site and check if you are receiving the same response there or not.

Thank you for the video, it seemed I was posting the data in the wrong format. It is working now!
