Trigger Hex Projects

Learn how to automatically trigger Hex projects when your dbt™ runs complete successfully in Bolt. This integration helps data teams maintain up-to-date dashboards by refreshing Hex projects immediately after successful pipeline runs.

​

What You’ll Get

When a run succeeds, Bolt automatically triggers your Hex project:

• Webhook triggers automatically
• Hex project refreshes with latest data

Step 1: Gather Your Hex Credentials

1. Get Your Project UUID:
   • Find the UUID in either:
     • The URL after /hex/
     • The Variables view in the sidebar

2. Generate API Key:

• Go to Settings > API Keys
• Create a new workspace token
• Save the token securely

​

Step 2: Configure the Webhook In Paradime

1. From the Bolt home screen, go to Templates
2. Click “Trigger Hex Project”
3. Enter your Hex Credentials:
   • Project UUID
   • API Key (Workspace Token)
4. Click “Connect”

​

Step 3: Test the Integration

1. Run a Bolt schedule manually (the webhook triggers only on successful runs)
2. After the run succeeds:
   • From the Bolt homescreen, go to Webhooks
   • Select your Hex Project Webhook
   • Check the Endpoints tab to verify the webhook triggered
   • Verify your Hex dashboard has updated
