Xiaoling 8.2 13 If you do not have a Losant Account, you can sign up for a free [[Losant Developer Sandbox>>url:https://www.losant.com/iot-platform/sandbox]] account. Once you have an account, [[create a new application>>url:https://docs.losant.com/applications/overview/#creating-applications]]. You can start from a blank application or from a [[Losant Application Template>>url:https://docs.losant.com/templates/overview/]], like [[The Things Network Application Template>>url:https://docs.losant.com/templates/the-things-network/]].

Xiaoling 23.2 15 Once you've created a new application, click **Webhooks** and then **Add Webhook**.

Xiaoling 23.2 47 Click on the [[Losant Webhook>>url:https://www.thethingsindustries.com/docs/integrations/cloud-integrations/losant/]] tile. If you are using Basic Auth for this Webhook or need to subscribe to more than just **uplink** messages, then please review the end of this How-To Guide in the section named [[Editing Your Losant Webhook in TTS>>url:https://docs.losant.com/guides/how-to-integrate-with-the-things-stack/#editing-your-losant-webhook-in-tts]].

53 Enter the following information into the Losant Webhook configuration:
54
Xiaoling 23.2 55 * **Webhook ID:** Make up any name that you would like. This does not have to be the ID of the webhook as it is stored in Losant.
56 * **Unique ID of Losant Webhook URL:** This is the Losant Webhook unique ID that was copied to the clipboard in LOSANT Webhooks.
Xiaoling 8.2 57
Xiaoling 23.2 58 Finally, click **Create Losant webhook**. If you need to configure additional options (e.g. Basic Auth or additional messages to subscribe to), use the TTS Custom Webhook Template or add these options once the Webhook in TTS is created by following the last section of this guide, [[Editing Your Losant Webhook in TTS>>url:https://docs.losant.com/guides/how-to-integrate-with-the-things-stack/#editing-your-losant-webhook-in-tts]].

65 == Create a Losant Application Workflow to Receive Data from the LoRaWAN Sensor and Confirm Data Flow to Losant via Uplinks ==
66
Xiaoling 22.2 67
Xiaoling 23.2 68 Since TTS is now configured to forward data to the Losant Webhook, let's create a [[Losant Application Workflow>>url:https://docs.losant.com/workflows/application-workflows/]] to receive the data from TTS.
Xiaoling 8.2 69
Xiaoling 23.2 70 Click on **Workflows** and then in the Application Workflow section, click **Add** to create a new Application Workflow.

83 Drag and drop the [[Webhook Trigger Node>>url:https://docs.losant.com/workflows/triggers/webhook/]] and the [[Debug Node>>url:https://docs.losant.com/workflows/outputs/debug/]] onto the visual workflow engine's canvas and connect them together. If you have only one webhook in this Losant application, it will be automatically selected for the Webhook Trigger. If you have multiple webhooks, select the one that was created in Webhook. Next, click **Save and Deploy**. Now that this workflow is deployed, click on the [[Debug Panel>>url:https://docs.losant.com/workflows/debugging-workflows/#debug-node-messages]].

Xiaoling 8.2 89 When TTS receives new data from the sensor, it will send that data to Losant over the Losant Webhook and trigger this workflow. Each time this workflow runs, new data will be displayed in the Debug Panel as shown below.

91
Xiaoling 23.2 92 **Note:** If TTS is not automatically decoding your data as shown below in** data.body.uplink_message.decoded_payload**, then you can decode your LoRaWAN device data in this Losant Application Workflow. Check out the blog post [[How To Decode and Visualize Your LoRaWAN Sensor Data Using TTS and Losant>>url:https://www.losant.com/blog/how-to-decode-and-visualize-your-lorawan-sensor-data-using-the-things-network-and-losant]] to learn more about decoding LoRaWAN data in Losant.
