Webhook payloads?
I'm trying to implement a webhook so that I know whenever a new discussion is created. The configuration was easy, and my server is getting pinged appropriately.
I'm supposed to be getting a JSON payload with the details of the discussion. But as far as I can tell, I'm not getting that information.
I'm using PHP. How is the JSON payload transferred? Is it POST data? Do you have any sample code for working with webhooks and PHP?
Thanks!

Web hooks post multipart file data. A common mistake in PHP is to use the $_POST var, which only holds form data. The following thread should help:

I've tried all of the PHP "ins" including $_FILES (referenced in the Stackoverflow URL you sent), $_POST, and $_REQUEST.
However, I'm still not getting any data, JSON or otherwise.
And I suppose the "do you have sample code" answer is no? If that's the case, I would recommend that perhaps you acquire some.
Suggestions?

Hi August, sorry for the delay.
We don't have any sample PHP code for consuming web hooks. I just examined our web hook code and I was mistaken about the multipart file data, it's just normal POST content. I cannot tell you why you are unable to see this data, as I am not a PHP programmer and am unfamiliar with those APIs. If there is a way to view the raw data from a request in PHP I'd look for that. If I run across some sample PHP code for consuming Tender's web hooks I'll let you know.

I just followed my own advice and found this:
