Learn how Zulip integrations work with this simple Hello World example!

  1. The Hello World webhook will use the test stream, which is by default in the Zulip dev environment. If you are running Zulip in production, you should make sure that this stream exists.

  2. Next, on your {{ settings_html|safe }}, create a Hello World bot. the URL for the Hello World bot using the API key and stream name:

    {{ api_url }}/v1/external/helloworld?api_key=abcdefgh&stream=test

  3. To trigger a notification using this webhook, use send_webhook_fixture_message from the Zulip command line:

    (zulip-py3-venv) vagrant@ubuntu-bionic:/srv/zulip$
    ./manage.py send_webhook_fixture_message \
    > --fixture=zerver/tests/fixtures/helloworld/hello.json \
    > '--url=http://localhost:9991/api/v1/external/helloworld?api_key=<api_key>'
    

    Or, use curl:

    curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "featured_title":"Marilyn Monroe", "featured_url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marilyn_Monroe" }' http://localhost:9991/api/v1/external/helloworld\?api_key\=<api_key>
