I'm creating a page for a webhook to call. I plan to return my response in XML. I need to know what the format of the response is. An example would be awesome!

Here is an example:

<typeName>Twitter</typeName>

<url>http://example.com</url>

</twitter>

</photos>

For example, you can then reference photos.twitter[0].url as the Response Attribute and then map that to any Marketo field. Let me know if that makes sense?

Thank you Murtza - yes, that does make sense. Now, I have a related question: What are the names of the Form elements that are posted to me by the webhook? When I select which fields I want the webhook to pass, it seems to build a JSON representation. But I am asking for a URL POST. Are the JSON names valid Form element names?

I am not sure if I understand your question. The tokens in the webhook reference lead fields. You can create a webhook that generates either JSON or XML.

Here are the developer docs for webhooks:

In this case referencing the values is easy as it is dot notation - i.e. photos.typeName would give you Twitter as a value. The problem we are having is when we want to access an attribute i.e. if you had <photos value="foo"> - how do you obtain "foo".

I can't see if Marketo uses XPath or not?
