How to pass data to IFTTT WebHook?

Viewed 14757

I have a task to add row into Google Sheet when WebHook received. Now I'm trying to setup IFTTT but have some problem It says that I should use URL like https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{my_key} and that is ok I can do it. But it needs to send some data in request and the only way my system can do it appends it to query string like https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{my_key}?name1=Alex&name2=Helen

But IFTTT doesn't see my data. it says that it can see data in attached JSON but I can't use JSON.

So is there any way to pass my data to IFTT in a query string or shell I forgot IFTTT and investigate how to connect directly to Google Sheet?

Try using https://bitly.com/ which will shorten and convert the query params to a path param. That worked for me.
