Add Torrents to Your Seedbox From Any App With a Webhook

The universal door: a private URL that starts a download when something POSTs a magnet link to it. Use it from an iOS Shortcut, a browser bookmarklet, a home-automation rule or any script.

Before you start

Nothing to create. The webhook URL is generated when you publish; treat it like a password.

Open the template

1. From the client area, open your seedbox service and click Open Liteflow on the Automation card.
2. Click Create New → Start from Template and choose Add a torrent from anywhere with a webhook.
3. Click Use Template, keep Personal Project, and Confirm. The flow opens in the builder with every step in place.

Get your URL

1. Click the Webhook received trigger. After you publish, the trigger shows your unique URL — copy it.
2. Add to seedbox reads magnet and label from the request body. Nothing to change.

Call it

curl -X POST https://…/api/v1/webhooks/<id> \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"magnet": "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:…", "label": "movies"}'

iOS Shortcut: Share Sheet → Get Contents of URL, method POST, JSON body with magnet set to the shared item.

Test and publish

1. Click a step and use Test step to see real data from your seedbox before going live.
2. Click Publish. The flow is now on; the switch on the Automations page turns it off again.
3. Open Runs whenever you want to see what fired and what each step returned.

If Something Does Not Work

• 404 — the flow is not published, or you are using the test URL; copy the live one after publishing.
• Added but not starting — set start in the Add to seedbox step, or check free space.

Variations

• Require a secret: set the trigger’s Auth to header and send it from your shortcut.
• Return the torrent hash to the caller with a Return Response step.
