| You need to confirm whether the API supports REST, webhooks, or both | Test REST API requests in Postman | API & Integrations | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
| A webhook is firing but the receiving system is failing | Review JSON payloads and responses | Automation | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
| A form needs to send lead data somewhere useful | Debug webhook delivery issues | Ecommerce Support | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
| API payloads need tested before launch | Connect forms to CRMs or email workflows | Analytics & Tracking | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
| Product or customer data needs cleanup | Support ecommerce/CMS integrations | API & Integrations | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
| Background jobs fail silently | Add practical error handling and logging | Automation | URL, reproduction steps, access context, current output, and desired result |
