I setup an Action for add data in a third party software located to a remote server and all work well. When the action is well taken in consideration, the software give a positive response. In complement is possible when using Auto-Action, to display/return on the page the response message but not with Cbsubs URL plugin
There's no where for it to output a response to as they're all done during various automatic processes of CBSubs so such a feature wouldn't really work.
Now I wondering what happen in case the remoter server in unavailable (downtime, maintenance). I suppose nothing and CB/CBsubs will not attempt later to make the request until get positive response.
If it fails, it fails, it does not retry.
It is possible to be warned if this happen by getting an email with Auto-Action ? Or is possible to cancel the Auto-Action if no positive response is received ? My worry is to have data present in CB but not on the remote server. I need to sync those data or to have nothing in both place.
No to both unless you use a PHP action and do an http request directly in that then send an email if the response failed.
