If a webhook is triggered, get a mobile notification
How this automation works
Notify external systems when Motion creates a new task. When a new task is created in Motion, this Applet makes a Webhooks request to the URL you provide and includes task details in the request body. Ideal for teams that need to trigger downstream workflows, log tasks, or integrate Motion with custom tools via Webhooks. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
