This test applet would verify the methods for detecting and processing a Response Body, amd then be able to include values in a rich notification.

The applet must be actionable via a Google Assistant Voice command that triggers a Webhook.

Due to IFTTT limitations already identified, the notification will be limited to a standard app notification to my phone.

In August 2021, Google have updated IFTTT with the ability to customise the Headers in a Webhook. Now I need to explore if they have made sufficient improvements to facilitate this objective.

In fact, I had found a Reddit IFTTT forum a couple of months prior, where Google were asking for ideas as to how they could improve IFTTT. I posted the 'ability to customise headers in webhooks' as a request. I cannot say if my input was an important one in their improvement, but I'm glad I mentioned it.
