JSONPath
You can parse incoming emails or webhooks in Planfix with JSON. Emails sent to Planfix can be parsed using JSON. JavaScript Object Notation is a format for storing and exchanging information available as human-readable text. There are two main elements in a JSON object: the key and the value.
Example:
{"city":"New York", "country":"United States"}
- keys — city and country;
- values — New York and United States
Planfix can parse emails in this format and add the necessary data into info blocks using the JsonPath library. Note: If you use a function when parsing, make sure that you insert parenthesis at the end, otherwise the function will not work.
Example №1
Sending an Email with JSON Format to Planfix
- As an example, we'll use the following JSON:
{ "firstName": "Denis", "lastName": "Evans", "address": { "streetAddress": "1109 SW 12th St", "city": "Newport", "postalCode": 97365 }, "phoneNumbers": [ "1-211-906-4147", ]
}- Let's say we need the following data from the JSON:
{ "firstName": "Denis", "lastName": "Evans", "address": { "streetAddress": "1109 SW 12th St", "city": "Newport", "postalCode": 97365 }, "phoneNumbers": [ "1-211-906-4147" ]
}
- We would configure the following rule for processing emails:
- Next, we create a new client using the template, indicate which infoblocks to set from which fields, and add the contact to the task created from the email:
- As a result, the necessary data from the email in JSON format was transferred to Planfix:
