I created a webhook automation in FME Flow (2025.1.3.3). It is a simple layout the webhook and a action to log a message.
I connected this webhook in ArcGIS Portal (11.5) under organization → webhooks → Organization webhooks → For /groups -> linked to the webhook API in FME FLOW. This was all pretty simple and easy to do.
I am able to trigger the automation successfully by making changes to a group. The trigger is logged in the _ fmeautomations.log. I can clearly see the successful triggering --
(Fri-10-Jul-2026 09:35:24.906 AM | INFORM | pool-6-thread-1 | Automation_Webhook (7d4efa47-4a28-4564-928a-c3744e704560) | no-event | 410160 : (Automations) Automation successfully triggered)
However, as shown in this article https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407612807821-Automate-ArcGIS-Enterprise-Portal-Administration-with-Organization-Webhooks-and-FME-Flow
The expected Payload does not follow the “Automation successfully triggered” entry. I can’t find the payload anywhere.
Now, when I turn the automation to debug, I can clearly see the payload after triggering the automation with a group update --

Any ideas on why the payload is not writing out to the _ fmeautomations.log?
