Build custom workflows with Buska webhooks
The Buska Webhook integration sends an HTTP POST event right after each scan finds a new buying signal on Reddit, Twitter / X, LinkedIn, Hacker News, Quora, YouTube, and 30+ other platforms. Connect Buska to any tool that accepts webhooks (Make, n8n, Pipedream, custom backends), build fully custom automations, or push data to your own infrastructure. The JSON payload includes the lead's name, channel, intent, score, content, post URL, and timestamp. Setup takes 2 minutes. The Buska Webhook integration is included from the Growth plan.
What you can do with Buska + Webhook
- Receive an HTTP POST request right after each scan for every new qualifying buying signal
- JSON payload with the lead's name, channel, intent, score, AI reasoning, ICP match, post excerpt and full text, post URL, and timestamps
- Filter which leads trigger the webhook through an automation: by intent score, platform, or keyword
- Connect to any tool that accepts webhooks: Make, n8n, Pipedream, Workato, Tray.io, or your custom Node / Python / Go backend
- Build completely custom lead processing pipelines with your own scoring, enrichment, and routing logic
How to set up Buska + Webhook
Get your webhook URL
In your receiving tool (Make, n8n, Pipedream, custom server), create a webhook endpoint and copy the URL. For local testing, use ngrok or Cloudflare Tunnel to expose a localhost endpoint.
Add to Buska
Paste the webhook URL in Buska Settings > Integrations > Webhook. The connection is instant. Only one generic webhook URL is active at a time per team (Make, n8n, and Teams each have their own separate connection slot if you use those instead).
Configure filters
Set your criteria through an automation: minimum intent score, platform, or keyword. Only matching leads trigger the webhook.
Parse the JSON payload
Parse the JSON payload in your tool. It has an `event` field (`"new_lead"`), a `timestamp`, and a `lead` object with: `name`, `channel`, `intent`, `score` (0 to 10), `aiReason`, `icpMatch`, `contentPreview`, `contentFull`, `postUrl`, `link`, `keyword`, `sentiment`, `publishedAt`, `createdAt`. An `enriched` object is added when enrichment data is available.
Build your workflow
Build whatever automation you need: CRM sync (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive), enrichment (Apollo, Clay), email / DM (Lemlist, Instantly), internal tools (Slack, Discord, Teams).
Watch for failures
Buska does not currently retry a failed webhook delivery or keep a replay log; if your endpoint is down when a scan fires, that event is not automatically resent. Keep your receiving endpoint reliable, or poll the Buska API (Growth and above) as a backup.
Real use cases with Webhook
Custom lead routing
Parse the webhook payload and route leads to different tools based on intent, channel, or score. Active demand signals go to your CRM with high priority, question signals go to your content team, competitor mentions go to a dedicated migration playbook.
Custom enrichment pipeline
Receive the webhook, enrich with your own data sources, score with your own model, then push to your CRM with your own composite score attached.
Multi-tool orchestration
Use a Buska webhook to trigger a workflow across multiple tools: create a HubSpot contact, send a Slack alert, and update an Airtable tracker, all from one social signal, through whichever automation tool you receive it in.
Custom LLM enrichment
Send each Buska webhook to your own LLM endpoint to draft a personalized reply, classify the buying intent more granularly, or summarize the social thread for your sales team.
