Inbound Automation

Inbound Automation allows you to connect and automate user creation and product or course access in SCP whenever a sale occurs on an external platform such as ThriveCart, Shopify, or any other system that supports webhooks.

Step 1: Create a New Inbound Automation

Go to SCP > Inbound and click on Add Inbound Automation.
This is where you’ll configure your automation to connect with an external platform.

Step 2: Select External Platform

Under the External Platform option, choose Webhook.
This allows SCP to receive POST requests from third-party platforms.

Step 3: Get Your SCP Webhook URL

Once Webhook is selected, a unique Webhook URL will appear.
This URL must be used in your external platform’s webhook settings to send order data to SCP.

Example Webhook URL:

https://sec.membershipsitechallenge.com/scp-webhook/69820490e1850e7ddc3c9fcc66b2547ce070ca956f2ca9b907285b9338841226

Step 4: Configure Platform Name

Enter a Platform Name that will also serve as the secret key for verification.
You must use the same key in your external platform (for example, in ThriveCart’s webhook secret settings).
Both values must match exactly, otherwise SCP will not process the webhook.

Step 5: Assign Product or Course Access

Select the SCP Product or Course that should be automatically granted when a webhook is received.
When SCP receives a valid webhook:

  • It checks if a user exists with the provided email.
  • If not, a new user account is created.
  • The user is then given access to the selected course or product.

Step 6: Send the Webhook from Your External Platform

After setting up the webhook in SCP, configure your third-party platform to send a POST request to the given Webhook URL.

Required Request Format

Endpoint:

POST https://sec.membershipsitechallenge.com/scp-webhook/69820490e1850e7ddc3c9fcc66b2547ce070ca956f2ca9b907285b9338841226

Headers:

Content-Type: application/json

Body (JSON):

{
  "platform_name": "Shopify",
  "first_name": "John",
  "last_name": "Doe",
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "shipping_first_name": "John",
  "custom_fields": {
    "notes": "TTE"
  },
  "orders": [
    {
      "product_id": 82,
      "name": "Premium Plan",
      "quantity": 1,
      "price": 49.99
    },
    {
      "product_id": 202,
      "name": "Extra Feature",
      "quantity": 2,
      "price": 19.99
    }
  ]
}

Step 7: How SCP Handles the Webhook

Once the webhook is fired:

  1. SCP verifies the platform name (secret key).
  2. It looks up the user by the provided email.
  3. If the user does not exist, SCP automatically creates a new account.
  4. SCP grants access to the selected product or course defined in your inbound automation.
  5. The process completes instantly — no manual intervention required.

Step 8: Test Your Integration

Use a tool such as Postman or cURL to send a test POST request to your SCP Webhook URL.
After sending, verify that:

  • The user is created in SCP.
  • The selected course or product is assigned correctly.

Example: Send Webhook Using PHP (cURL)

You can test or integrate the webhook directly using PHP as shown below:

<?php
// SCP Webhook URL
$url = 'https://sec.membershipsitechallenge.com/scp-webhook/69820490e1850e7ddc3c9fcc66b2547ce070ca956f2ca9b907285b9338841226';

// Webhook data
$data = [
    "platform_name" => "Shopify",
    "first_name" => "John",
    "last_name" => "Doe",
    "email" => "[email protected]",
    "shipping_first_name" => "John",
    "custom_fields" => [
        "notes" => "Test order webhook"
    ],
    "orders" => [
        [
            "product_id" => 82,
            "name" => "Premium Plan",
            "quantity" => 1,
            "price" => 49.99
        ]
    ]
];

// Initialize cURL
$ch = curl_init($url);

// Set cURL options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
    'Content-Type: application/json'
]);

// Execute and get the response
$response = curl_exec($ch);

// Close connection
curl_close($ch);

// Display response
echo $response;

This example will send a properly formatted JSON payload to your SCP webhook endpoint.
If everything is configured correctly, SCP will create or update the user and grant the selected course/product access automatically.
