Yes, you can update custom fields in Webflow using a logic flow and a webhook. Webflow provides a robust API that allows you to interact with your Webflow projects programmatically. By utilizing this API in combination with a webhook service, you can create a logic flow that updates custom fields dynamically.

To accomplish this, follow these steps:

Set up your webhook: Use a webhook service like Zapier, Integromat, or Pabbly Connect to create a webhook that listens for specific triggers or events.
Configure the webhook: Define the trigger or event that will fire the webhook. For example, you could trigger the webhook when a form submission is received on your website.
Integrate with the Webflow API: In your webhook service, configure the action to send a request to the Webflow API. You'll need to provide your API key and project ID in the request.
Update the custom fields: Within the webhook action, specify the logic flow and data mapping to update the desired custom fields in your Webflow project. This may involve extracting data from the webhook payload or making additional API calls to retrieve related information.
Test and deploy: Test your logic flow to ensure it updates the custom fields correctly. Once you're satisfied with the outcome, deploy the webhook and let it run in the background to update the custom fields in real-time.

By utilizing this workflow, you can automate the process of updating custom fields in Webflow based on predefined triggers or events. Whether you're updating customer information, syncing data from external systems, or customizing content based on specific actions, this approach provides a flexible and powerful way to maintain your Webflow projects.
