I know in the "Settings > API Integration" I can add a URL that will receive a POST when a Case (Customer Inquiry) is created, however the contents of that POST only contains two IDs e.g. ObjectID=1234567&ObjectType=2001
Is there a way that I can send a custom POST to some URL with the actual form data? E.g. if I wanted to send the person who submitted the form a text message via a third-party SMS API
No; you'll need to respond to that POST with one that extracts the data you need from BC, then transform & forward that data to the SMS service.
This implies that you'll have a third server to handle those intermediary steps.

Another approach to do this is to write some ajax post function to post form data to the desired URL before submission.

I can't find any tutorial in grails3 to get input value in textarea from angular5 or any frontend, because I want to comparing the value with my data in database
The angular app (client) would need to POST the data to the backend (server) grails part where your controller should handle the incoming request object and pass it around to any services, etc to do whatever it is you are trying to do. The angular side would need to be listening (i.e. subscribed to the post observable) for the answer from your grails app response and determine what to show the user.
I understand that to use the /attachments API, an id of the event or message which has an attachment needs to be passed. Can attachment data for an event or message be obtained without this dependency? For example, when I'm making a call to /events API for a particular user, along with events data for that user, can I also get attachment data associated with the event?
I'm using client credentials flow.
This is possible by explicitly specifying that you'd like to include attachments the response body using the OData expand query option.
In your case, the request URI would look as follows: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/events?$expand=attachments
I have situation that if anyone send SMS to my virtual number(CallerID) the BurstSMS API will call my handler which get the response from query string and proceed further.
So, I want to know only that ,how and which things needed to integrate the BurstSMS API in my APS.NET application.
I couldn't find the information from the documentation of API site and as well as not any article on the google.
Thanks in advance.
This is what you need to do.
Log in to your account
Go to Messaging -> Keywords
Click Edit from the Actions column of the campaign you would like to receive responses for
In the form which pops up fill in the "Send Response to URL" field with a URL to a script on your server which can process the responses, e.g. www.clienturl.com/sms.php
Click Save
From then on we will forward all SMSes for that campaign to your script with an HTTP GET request. For example, if you send "Property 25" to your longcode, we will call
www.clienturl.com/sms.php?mobile=61430008230&response=Property+25
From that you can see the parameters we use.
You could also add other parameters your own reference such as the longcode or an internal client id by using a different URL in the "Send Response to URL" field, e.g.
www.clienturl.com/sms.php?longcode=61418499440&client=123
In which case we would send to you
www.clienturl.com/sms.php?longcode=61418499440&client=123&mobile=61430008230&response=Property+25

My issue is that I do not know how to process an incoming request without knowing the URL that the post message is coming from.
The Vend API that I am trying to integrate with sends a post message to my URL with the following information:
"The POST body will include a field named payload. This field contains
a JSON encoded object with details of the object that caused the
hooked event. Other form fields (such as environment or domain_prefix)
may be present, but are not guaranteed to be.
The payload objects you’ll find in webhook requests are now the same
as those you’ll receive from the newer parts of the API marked as
version 1.0 or higher. So, for example, the product webhook should
give you a product payload that’s the same as if you requested
/api/1.0/product/{product_id}."
http://docs.vendhq.com/webhooks.html (here is the link for more details)
I'm fairly new to ASP MVC and I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to go forth. I need to eventually map the incoming name value pairs to my model.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
When you said you don't know the URL that the post message is coming from, I think you mean that you don't know the format of the URL (path and parameters) that the webhook is being posted to. The only things your MVC app needs to know in order to process the request are the names of the post parameters, which in this case is a single parameter named payload that contains a JSON string according to the snippet you included from the documentation.
There are several ways for you to get this data. One of the most simple is to take advantage of ASP.NET MVC's automatic mapping of POST parameters to controller action method parameters:
public ActionResult MyActionMethod(string payload)
{
// 'payload' will be automatically populated with the json string from the POST payload
}
Of course you now have to parse the json payload which you can do in several ways using the .NET framework or with any number of 3rd party libraries.
So a user calls a Twilio phone number. Twilio looks for a voice_url attached to that number (from their dashboard) and sees some XML with instructions on how to handle the call. The XML file also has an "action" parameter that points to a url.
Ideally, this URL should be able to retrieve parameters sent by Twilio and save them to a DB. This is where I'm stuck; how can I see which parameters are sent and how can I save them? I'm assuming the URL in the "action" parameter points to a controller?
I'm using the twilio-rb gem.
Some relevant links:
http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/twiml/dial#attributes-action
http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/twiml/twilio_request
When Twilio makes a POST to the URL mentioned by the Action parameter, it will send all of the attributes mentioned here: http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/twiml/twilio_request.
You should create your own route and controller for responding to the incoming Twilio request. When Twilio makes the request, you should be able to get the variables out of the POST request like any POST request. See for example How to access POST variables in Rails?.
