In such environments, you can update the by simply accessing an endpoint if you create a Pixela Webhook endpoint in advance.
The first step is creating a webhook with a request like the below:
By this request, you can create a Webhook (Incoming Webhook) that can increment the value of the date (this Webhook was requested) of the graph whose graph ID is .
You need not to set in the request header when you request this Webhook.
Note
- It is possible to update the value of the graph if is known. Basically, it is better not to disclose this.
- The contents of the request body for this Webhook endpoint will not be used for anything (it will be ignored).
