# Setting up Appservice Webhooks (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
The playbook can install and configure [matrix-appservice-webhooks](https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-appservice-webhooks) for you.
|
||||
|
||||
Setup Instructions:
|
||||
|
||||
loosely based on [this](https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-appservice-webhooks/blob/master/README.md)
|
||||
|
||||
1. All you basically need is to adjust your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.<domain-name>/host-vars.yml`:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
matrix_appservice_webhooks_enabled: true
|
||||
matrix_appservice_webhooks_api_secret: '<your_secret>'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. In case you want to change the verbosity of logging via `journalctl -fu matrix-appservice-webhooks.service`
|
||||
you can adjust this in `inventory/host_vars/matrix.<domain-name>/host-vars.yml` as well.
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
*Note*: default value is: `info` and availabe log levels are : `info, verbose`
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
matrix_appservice_webhooks_log_level: '<log_level>'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. If you've already installed Matrix services using the playbook before, you'll need to re-run it (`--tags=setup-all,start`). If not, proceed with [configuring other playbook services](configuring-playbook.md) and then with [Installing](installing.md). Get back to this guide once ready.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Invite the bridge bot user to your room:
|
||||
- either with:
|
||||
```
|
||||
/invite @_webhook:matrix.<domain.name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
*Note*: Make sure you have administration permissions in your room
|
||||
- or simply add the bridge bot to a private channel (personal channels imply you being an administrator)
|
||||
|
||||
5. Send a message to the bridge bot in order to receive a private message including the webhook link.
|
||||
```
|
||||
!webhook
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. The JSON body for posting messages will have to look like this:
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
"text": "Hello world!",
|
||||
"format": "plain",
|
||||
"displayName": "My Cool Webhook",
|
||||
"avatarUrl": "http://i.imgur.com/IDOBtEJ.png"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
- You can test this via curl like so:
|
||||
```
|
||||
curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
--data '{
|
||||
"text": "Hello world!",
|
||||
"format": "plain",
|
||||
"displayName": "My Cool Webhook",
|
||||
"avatarUrl": "http://i.imgur.com/IDOBtEJ.png"
|
||||
}' \
|
||||
<the link you've gotten in 5.>
|
||||
```
