Calling Marketo REST API from a webook

Dear all,

Has anyone tried to Call Marketo REST API from a webhook ? I gather that this is not possible because of the Authentication issue, but I just wanted to know if anyone had ever tried and what were the outcomes.

I have a question for you, what is the use case?  Are you using the webhooks to call a second instance of Marketo, or to update the same instance of Marketo?

If it is a different Instance, you can just use two webhooks, one to authenticate and one to perform the action.

If it is the same instance, then this will not be possible, you will have to call a webservice and then have that webservice relay the API calls.

    Hi Jamie,

    It's the same instance.

    I had come to that conclusion as well. Wanted to see if I had missed something.

    Any idea of a platform to quickly and efficiently develop such web services ?

    AWS Lambda​ seems to be becoming a popular choice for these types of small single-purpose services.  Load-balancing, environment and server-provisioning are completely abstracted away so you can focus on create the service that you want, without the infrastructure overhead.
