Advanced: How to use Reminders webhook functionality

The Reminders app allows advanced creating/updating of reminders via a Webhook which the app can create for you.

A webhook named App - Reminders - Create or update is created once the create webhook button is clicked under the Settings menu item in the app. Once installed, you can then proceed to create trigger actions to setup advanced timer workflows.

The webhook accepts the following parameters:

Parameter Value
name* What label to give the reminder that is about to be created. If a reminder already exists with that name, that one will be updated instead.
date* The value of a ticket field of type "Date".
time* The value of a ticket field of type "Text". This field accepts many ways to express time, such as "1pm", "13:00", "1:00 PM".
timezone* An IANA timezone value such as "Australia/Melbourne" or "America/Los_Angeles".
workflow_id The ID of a valid Workflow defined within the reminder app that should be associated with the created/updated reminder.
minutes_from_now Instead of specifying "date", "time" and "timezone", have the reminder set for a specified time period from now.
hours_from_now
days_from_now

*Mandatory field.
Note that date, time and timezone are mandatory unless a *_from_now parameter is specified.
Your workflow ID can be found at the bottom of the page of the particular workflow settings in the app.

Below are some examples for how to configure the webhook on a trigger.
