Webhook database trigger only when NOT from Server SDK (API key)
Like in the title I need to Sync the Appwrite with a other SQL Database so I got a Webhook trigger when something has a create/update/delete event in appwrite, now because other applications still need to use the other database I also write with my c# backend the new values into the appwrite database... is it possible to just trigger the event when it is NOT the c# backend?
TL;DR
Solution: To prevent the webhook trigger when the update is from the C# backend, you can add a conditional check within the webhook implementation to verify the source of the request. Create a validation step that only triggers the event if the request is not initiated by the C# backend, using different authentication methods or headers to differentiate between the sources. This way, the webhook will only execute for updates that are not from the C# backend.
Indeed would be nice to have the option to not trigger an event. I once wrote a function that would trigger after a document update and it would update the document again so that didn't end well.. 😓
