I finally got my Axis Network 8004 and 8005 doorbells to work with Homey & Webhook Manager App.

Here is a short “how to”

**1. Install Webhook Manager App**  
Webhook Manager support URL GET’s - so [http://url.com/xyz/&agument=1&argument2=data2](http://url.com/xyz/&agument=1&argument2=data2)  
That means you can call URL’s that then turn into something usable in homey

Once you have installed Webhook manager - go to the settings page and select Webhook Manager.

There it will show you how to implement it - and it shows URLS. Make note of the main URL and the token and write them down.

So this is the example - you URL data will look different:

`https://webhooks.athom.com/webhook/57274085acb3bd6d24b3d200/?token=[your token here]&event=your_event_name_here&data1=data_field_1_here&data2=data_field_2_here&data3=data_field_3_here`

Now take the base URL: `https://webhooks.athom.com/webhook/57274085acb3bd6d24b3d200/`  
And the token : `[your token here]`

**2. Create a flow with Webhooks Manager as the trigger**. Enter an event name - I named mine “Doorbell”. Webhooks

Manager supports up to 3 arguments - so I use the “data1” argument as the door (Front Door or Back Gate)

Then I made a phone notification to my phone - with `[[data1]] doorbell has rung` (data1 arg dragged to notification)

**3. Now time to setup Axis Door bell.** It is a very versatile doorbell with good camera quality and works with SIP/IP etc.

Go to the Axis Setup web page and click on [Events] then [Recipients]  
Setup as shown below where the URL is the main url you extracted above with NO trailing ‘/’

So `Name` is one you choose:  
`Type` : set to `HTTPS`  
`URL`: enter the BASE URL `https://webhooks.athom.com/webhook/57274085acb3bd6d24b3d200`

![Axis%20Set%20Recipients](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/8/8ed407893c5f6a7dada0c06ff1e3d6856d1abbe8.png)

Don’t test the URL yet!! It wont work without the TOKEN & arguments!

Now click [Close].

Now click on "[Action Rules] and then [Add]

First give it a [NAME] (Mine is Homey Call)

Then under [Condition] set  
First line - to ‘Input Signal’  
2nd line to ‘Digital Input Port’  
3rd Line to ‘Call Button (Port 1)’

And that is it for the trigger. You can experiment with other things yourself. 🙂

Now jump to the [Actions] part:

Set [Type] to ‘Send Notification’  
Select the Recipient as the one you defined earlier (Mine is called ‘HomeyMSG’

DO NOT put anything in to the Message Paramter - leave it blank. But go and define your own.

So \*Custom Parameters to be created:

1. token - set to the [TOKEN] value from step one
2. event - set to the name of your event (mine is Doorbell)
3. data1 - set to (in my case) the “name” of the doorbell as I have two.

 ![Axis%20Send%20Notification](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/5/5b3d14315fa1d0cf901668fc8fb62256216bf27b.png)

Now you can click the View URL - and try to open it.

If everything is working you should get a and open web page with a simple [OK] message on it - and a notification on your phone.

If you get “ok but no matches” as the response - try to restart the Webhooks manager in the Homey app (and then double check your tokens are still the same!) - or check your Webhooks Flow setup!

I hope this helps someone 🙂 have a great day.
