Sending Data to Pardot with Webhooks

Summary

In this article we’ll outline the steps needed to send data to Pardot via a PathFactory webhook with the following steps.

  1. Set up a Pardot Form.
  2. Create a PathFactory Webhook.
  3. Test your Webhook.

Step 1: Set up a Pardot Form Handler

  1. Create a form handler in Pardot, and ensure the following:
    • The Pardot form handler will need a field for each of the event field data points for a Form Capture Webhook, Visitor Session Webhook, and/or Visitor Activity Webhook.

    Note:

    • Click here  for definitions of each webhook field. If you are unsure what type of webhook you are going to create visit the Setting Up Webhooks article.
  2. Take note of the URL of the form you just created. You will use this when creating the Webhook in Step 2.

  3. Name the webhook, select which event type will trigger the webhook, and the URL of the Pardot Form you created in Step 1 above.
    Note
    If you only want to receive data on known visitors in your Pardot Account, check the box for Fire for known visitors only.
