Rocket.Chat + Foldr Integration
Rocket.Chat is a mature open-source team chat platform favored by governments and enterprises needing on-prem deployment. Foldr integrates via incoming webhooks or Rocket.Chat Apps.
How to Connect Rocket.Chat to Foldr
Create an inbound webhook in Rocket.Chat
In Rocket.Chat's webhook / automation settings, add a new webhook that fires on the event you care about.
Point the webhook at Foldr
Use https://foldr.space/api/v1/webhooks/ingest?token=<your-foldr-webhook-token> — Foldr accepts JSON bodies and deduplicates by source ID.
Add an outgoing Foldr webhook (optional)
If you want events to flow the other way (Foldr → Rocket.Chat), add your Rocket.Chat webhook URL to your Foldr workspace settings.
Common Use Cases
- Drop a Foldr short link into Rocket.Chat whenever a file is ready
- Receive Rocket.Chat notifications when a Foldr upload finishes
- Use Foldr as the file host when Rocket.Chat's native attachments are too limited
- Let Rocket.Chat bots respond to mentions with a Foldr URL
