Is it possible to receive a message via API (or if there's any other way besides API)

[UiP_Mc (Mc)]

Hi. I was just wondering if it’s possible to receive a message from an API?
( Or any other way to receive it; )

1. On my orchestrator
   or
2. On my process/workflow

The intent is that I need to receive a phone number and use it in my process later on.
Is this attainable?

Regards,
Mc

Hi @UiP_Mc,
I’m not sure if this will meet your requirements but please have a look:

Webhooks

Hi @UiP_Mc

There is currently no native way to let Orchestrator listen for webhooks from other services. However, please check out this tutorial:

Using Google Calendar for scheduling Orchestrator jobs

Orchestrator has the ability to schedule jobs, which is really nice. But won’t it be nice if you could use a graphical tool - like a calendar - to schedule and move them around? So when a new event starts in your calendar, this would automatically start a job called {{event.title}} on the {{event.location}} environment on a pre-defined tenant. Well - here is how you can do this, using a Google Calendar, IFTTT and a proxy service that takes an IFTTT HTTP request and transforms it into an Orches…

It is not what you want 100%, but it would provide you insights on how it could be achieved using Google Cloud AppEngine or a similar service

Hello Mc,
In the first video, you will see how Use Orchestrator Webhooks in Power Automate:

UiPath Orchestrator send text to MS Teams via Webhooks (Chatbot)

In the second video you can see how I use the Slack Webhooks to communicate with UiPath:
