2020-12-11 12:18:54 UTC - Dominic Kim: I am curious if there is any reason that trigger does not forward the header to a web action. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607689134391100?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 12:34:26 UTC - Rodric Rabbah: Nope https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607690066391300?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 12:34:44 UTC - Rodric Rabbah: Meanings it wasn’t done deliberately https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607690084391900?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 12:35:14 UTC - Rodric Rabbah: But a trigger doesn’t use the web api for an action. It does a POST https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607690114392700?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 13:58:20 UTC - Dominic Kim: yes I am trying to receive github event payload and some information like event type(issues, push, pull_request) is only available in the header. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607695100395900?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 13:59:10 UTC - Dominic Kim: I can make users use a web action, but then they cannot automate the hook setup process with a feed. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607695150397300?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 13:59:20 UTC - Dominic Kim: I would look into this. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607695160397700?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 14:20:08 UTC - Rodric Rabbah: the async web action would be quite handy - so you’re thinking about it as a trigger -> web action if the relationship from trigger to action is 1-1, did you consider an async web action? That is allowing a web action to be invoked asynchronously without a trigger? https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607696408398200?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-12-11 14:21:38 UTC - Rodric Rabbah: Going through the web action api would allow you to also reuse the existing web action handler which adds the headers etc to the actions’ event context. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1607696498398400?thread_ts=1607689134.391100&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ----
