Nextcloud Talk API - Webhooks

Technical assistance
1

Looking to push webhooks over to Nextcloud talk the below code works for curl:

curl -u 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' 'https://www.nextcloud.url/ocs/v2.php/apps/spreed/api/v1/chat/{TOKEN}'   -H 'accept: application/json, text/plain, */*'   -H 'cache-control: no-cache'   -H 'content-type: application/json'   -H "OCS-APIRequest: true"   --data-raw '{"message":"THIS IS MY MESSAGE"}'

REPLACE : USERNAME, PASSWORD, {TOKEN} with your NextCloud info

I tied a payload of:

{
“OCS-APIRequest”: “true”,
“accept”: “application/json, text/plain, /”,
“cache-control”: “no-cache”,
“token”: “MYTOKEN”,
“content-type”: “application/json”,
“message”: “TEST IF THIS THING WORKS”
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated! =)

Infos:

  • Used Zammad version: version 6.1.0-1694783928.bfa2ec1e.bookworm
  • Used Zammad installation type: package bookworm 12 debian
  • Operating system: Debian 13
  • Browser + version: Chrome/Firefox (current stable)

Do you want to add this inside the webhook configuration inside Zammad, to trigger this after some ticket actions?

Currently, a POST-Request with Basic-Auth should work.

OCS-APIRequest is this maybe some special header which is required for Nextcloud?

Thank you for the reply @dominikklein

Yes the goal is to use triggers for tickets to notify people in a group within the talk application on nextcloud, after at looking at this closer the OCS-APIRequest is requested for the header, and I don’t think putting it in the payload is correct. But where would I add this? I used RocketChat previously with the Slack integration plugins.

Currently, the webhooks do not support adding some custom headers which seems to be needed for this situation (when OCS-APIRequest is required).

This sounds then like a needed enhancement for the webhooks.

Thanks, I’ll added this to a feature requests to have a field per webhooks for the custom headers in the same aura where custom payload is.

Thanks for your time!
