Is there a way to get notified when new users join?
Two ways you can do it either enable approval of new users.
Or set up a zapier workflow to email upon new user via a webhook
Hi @mikechristopher
Thanks for your response.
I don’t need to approve new people though. I just want to get a notification when someone joins.
I know I can go to dashboard - new users to see new people who’ve joined. But I would rather get a notification.
Any ideas there?
That was an either/or - you can configure the user webhook to trigger when a user is added/changed without requiring approval of new users.
as @supermathie beat me to it -
If you want it without approval there is no native way within discourse to do so. Follow the Zapier webook link in my last post and will help set up a workflow in which will send you an email ![]()
What I’m currently doing in order to check any new signups (and total forum user count) on my forum is using the link yourdiscourseforum(.)com plus /users. So you visit yourdiscourseforum(.)com/users. Additionally I bookmark this url on my iPhone in order to check up on my forum user stats when I’m away from my pc.
Getting an e-mail notification seems great if your getting a “reasonable” amount of new signups per day, so not in the hundreds. What I would prefer to see is a weekly update/stats report about your forum being automatically emailed to you.
I’ve set the webhook up but it’s emailing more for every change of a persons account so whether they sign up, delete account etc. Is there a way of restricting the User Event to just a signup?
I believe that you either need a plugin or to have wherever you are calling do the filtering.
You might check out GitHub - erickguan/discourse-user-created-webhook · GitHub
There is no need for a plugin, just filter the webhook event type for only user created.
Read the whole guide, it shows exactly this Trigger a Zapier task with Discourse Webhooks
The problem that I think I understand, though, is that Zapier charges more to filter those calls and also counts each of those unnecessary calls against how much you have used it
제이(Jay)가 언급했듯이, 이 통합 방식은 작동하지만 Zapier(또는 Make)에서 운영(operations)을 낭비합니다. 이러한 운영에는 비용이 발생하므로 이상적이지 않습니다. 새 사용자 등록 시에만 웹훅을 호출할 수 있을까요?
