Visual Website Click to Webhook Builder

#1

Post by maximbuz » Mon, Aug 19, 2024, 12:31 PM UTC

I'm building a super easy, cheap and lightweight tool that lets you open your Website / App and visually click on Elements to define User Actions. These, in turn, trigger Webhooks that you can use for whatever.

Would anyone be interested in such a tool (specifically solopreneurs, mini SaaS's etc.?)

What information does the webhook has?

I’m interested to know more because I don’t understand what you mean?

So here's what I was thinking: - It's a web-plattform where you can put in your website url - Then you can simply open your website (in production) and you will see a toolbar floating on top of your website - You can use this toolbar to select HTML Elements on your own website (similar to how the select cursor in chrome dev tools works) - By selecting elements you can create "User Actions", which simply is a sequence of clicks in order on specific elements on your website - Now, after saving, every time a user on your website does those specific "User Actions", you will receive a webhook to your system - You could pass any user properties you wish on to that webhook call - You can use the webhook call for whatever you wish (triggering emails, analytics, support, etc.)

Does that make any sense?

See the answer above, I just posted a reply which may give more context.

As for what the webhook contains: - Some standard metadata about the session (location, host, referrer etc.) - Any user property (email, userId etc.) that you can add at that specific point in time in your app

Does that make sense?

Kind of makes sense, I just don’t see a use case
