How does the integration between Cockpit and HTTP work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Cockpit and HTTP that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Cockpit and HTTP.
Connect your Cockpit and HTTP accounts once, pick an action in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: use Cockpit's "Create Collection" action to perform HTTP's "Download a File" action. Cockpit has 11 actions (including Create Collection, Create Entry, and Delete Entry); HTTP has 3 actions (including Download a File, Make a GraphQL Request, and Send a Request). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — pick an action in either app, then an action in the other, and map the fields between them. [2]
No. Cockpit-to-HTTP automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Cockpit (or HTTP) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Cockpit + HTTP automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
