This blog post is part two in a series on ArcGIS Workflow Manager integration with ArcGIS Survey123. If you haven\u2019t read part one and you are not familiar with this integration, you can access that blog post <\/em>here<\/em><\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n

Integrating ArcGIS Workflow Manager with ArcGIS Survey123 provides organizations with intuitive new ways to capture form-based responses from desktop and mobile users. Included with this integration is the ability to use Survey123 webhooks to create jobs in Workflow Manager. A webhook is a mechanism that allows an application to provide other applications with event-driven information. Webhooks offer a quick and easy way to connect separate systems together with no ongoing maintenance.<\/p>\n

Why is this important? Well, consider a couple of scenarios that may be familiar to your organization.<\/p>\n

Scenario 1:<\/strong> Your organization performs an annual fire hydrant inspection using Survey123. When a fire hydrant inspection results in repairs or replacement, your organization\u2019s GIS data may need to be updated. To simplify this process, the submission of an annual fire hydrant inspection in Survey123 will automatically create a Workflow Manager job for the GIS team to review the inspection and make changes to their GIS data as necessary.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1287562,"id":1287562,"title":"webhooksworkflow","filename":"webhooksworkflow.png","filesize":70872,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/workflow-manager\/field-mobility\/create-arcgis-workflow-manager-jobs-using-survey123-webhooks\/webhooksworkflow","alt":"Workflow Manager Webhooks Workflow","author":"229722","description":"","caption":"","name":"webhooksworkflow","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1287542,"date":"2021-07-08 12:58:28","modified":"2021-07-08 12:58:45","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1280,"height":720,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","large-width":1280,"large-height":720,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","1536x1536-width":1280,"1536x1536-height":720,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","2048x2048-width":1280,"2048x2048-height":720,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow-826x465.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/07\/webhooksworkflow.png","wide_image-width":1280,"wide_image-height":720}},"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Scenario 2:<\/strong> \u00a0Your organization regularly gathers information from other organizations to maintain a regional data hub. Submissions from these organizations need to go through a screening process before they are input into the data hub. Survey123 provides submitters with a familiar and simple way of sending their information. Once the survey is submitted, screeners in your organization are automatically assigned a job to begin the process with all the information they need attached.<\/p>\n

Getting Started<\/h3>\n

Before we can start working with webhooks in Survey123, we\u2019ll need to ensure we have a few items ready to go.<\/p>\n
