In your TimeTonic table, the URL_TRIGGER()
function lets you automatically call a webhook URL using an action button directly from the row.
💡 Let’s say you want to call a webhook using a trigger button, in order to retrieve the table
and row
parameters.
➡️ Configure the field as an action button
The action is triggered (on click), so you need to set up the formula field as an action button:
-
Type: Formula
-
Formula output type: URL
-
Transform into a button: enabled ✅
-
Button name: choose your preferred label (e.g.,
trigger
) -
Action button: enabled ✅
🌐 URL Format
To ensure the identifiers are transmitted correctly as GET parameters (and thus recognized by most tools like Make, Zapier, webhook.site, etc.):
👉 Use the “query string” format:
URL_TRIGGER("https://webhook.site/monid?table={tableId}&row={rowId}")
✅ The values are correctly received as part of the query
object on the webhook side:
"query": {
"table": "557963",
"row": "125508508"
}
✅ Recommended Example
URL_TRIGGER("https://hook.eu2.make.com/utr6425hnegnl2cn599qiogr72hwa179?table={tableId}&row={rowId}")
➡️ Key Points Recap
-
{tableId}
and{rowId}
are automatically replaced by TimeTonic. -
Always place them inside the query string (
?table={tableId}&row={rowId}
) so the external service can interpret them as valid GET parameters.
🔁 In Summary
-
Always prefer the format
?table={tableId}&row={rowId}
to ensure compatibility with API that expect GET parameters. -
This ensures your automation or webhook receives the correct context from TimeTonic.
