I have an existing Arduino project implemented with Xively (originally pachube and then Cosm). The free version of Xively is going away, so I'm reimplementing in thinggspeak. I have the data uploading successfully to a channel, but I am having a devil of a time getting the react to post successfully from thinghttp to Zapier (which I use for generating asynchronous email updates).
Has anyone successfully created a thingHttp that will trigger a zapier webhook? I've tried eliminating the react, and just triggering the thingHttp using TimeControl, and I still don't get the PUT to Zapier successfully.

And, of course, 15 minutes later, it starts working. I spent some time debugging with curl, but in the end, I'm not sure what made it work.

The best kind of problem to fix. I am happy that it is working now. Welcome to ThingSpeak!

Must be in a parallel universe - Also a former Pachube,Cosm,Xively user trying to pass web hook to Rapier....
This thread will be used countless time if you document what you did to fix it...

I ran into the same issue trying to get a Webhook to work between ThingHTTP and Zapier. Since I couldn't find an answer anywhere else, I figured I'd post how I managed to get it working.
Instead of using ThingHTTP, I was able to get it to work using a Matlab Analysis App in the same way you would for IFTTT.
Basic test code below sends request to Zapier with one data field along with a second variable with a string of "Test Message" assigned to it.
%ThingSpeak to Zapier webhook write
%Enter your ThingSpeak channel ID here
channelID = xxxxxxx;
%Enter the Zapier hooks url:
zapierURL = 'https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/xxxxxxx/xxxxxx/';
% Channel Read API Key (if you are using your own channel)
% If your channel is private, then enter the read API Key between the '' below:
readAPIKey = '';
% Build the ThingSpeak URL for field 1.
thingSpeakURL = strcat('https://api.thingspeak.com/channels/',string(channelID),'/fields/1/last.txt');
% GET the Field 1 data from ThingSpeak.
FieldValue1 = str2double(webread(thingSpeakURL, 'api_key', readAPIKey));
% String to be sent via value2
plantMessage = 'Test Message';
%Write the webhook to zapier
webwrite(zapierURL,'value1', FieldValue1, 'value2', plantMessage );
