I’m trying to set up webhooks to go to my Home Assistant instance. I’ve sent requests manually (over the internet, not from within my local network) and HA receives and processes them correctly. However, when clicking “send a demo trigger" in the Equiwatt app (Android v5.0.93), HA doesn’t receive anything.
We’ve identified an issue with the “Send demo trigger” option, where it may not work unless the webhook URL has been saved first. We’ll be fixing this in our next app update.
In the meantime, please save your webhook URL first, then try “Send demo trigger” again. This should allow the trigger to be sent successfully.
Apologies for the inconvenience, and thank you for flagging this with us!
Hi @yasas- I thought as much and have already tried that! I just tried again, with a webhook I saved a while ago, but no dice.
However, all of that was using my Home Assistant instance as a test target. If I use https://webhook.site then it works. So what could be preventing it reaching Home Assistant?
My HA instance is behind Cloudflare, but I’ve not deliberately configured anything there that could block these requests.
Where can I look in HA or Cloudflare for logs that might help me find the root cause here?
