WHMCS Trigger

Summary

Receives WHMCS hook events via an HTTP POST webhook and starts the workflow with the request body. Select the event hook points to accept, and optionally set a shared secret that the PHP bridge must send in the X-WHMCS-Secret header.

Inputs

  • Events — Select WHMCS hook points the workflow should accept; defaults to any event (*). These must match the events the PHP bridge forwards. Requests with a nonempty event that is not selected are acknowledged and ignored.
  • Shared Secret — Optional password. When set, requests must include the same value in the X-WHMCS-Secret header or the webhook responds with HTTP 401. When empty, requests are unauthenticated.

Output shape

A single n8n item containing the webhook request body as JSON.

The PHP hook bridge must be installed in WHMCS /includes/hooks/ and configured with the production webhook URL. The webhook uses POST and acknowledges received requests; requests with no event field are passed through even when specific events are selected.
