Custom Activities Javascript integration

Hello, I'm a junior developer, and I'm trying to implement a functionality that aims to utilize user interactions with the website. For instance, if the user clicks on a specific product on the webpage, I want to trigger an activity in Dynamics that states /this user is interested in product X/. Is there a way to create something like this in Dynamics using JavaScript?

Hi,

You can send an XMLHTTPRequest to Powre Automate Flow by clicking on a specific product.
A JSON string containing the product information is included in the sent request.
Then create an activity in Power Automate Flow using the product information.

In my testing, the flow is triggered when Product 1 is clicked.

The source code is shown below.

<div id="prodcut" style="height: 100px;width: 100px;border: 1px solid;">
        <p>Product1</p>
        <p>Product2</p>
        <p>Product3</p>
    </div>
<script>
   var product =document.getElementsByTagName("p")[0];
   product.addEventListener("click",function(e){
        let data={"Product_Name":""};
        
        //Get the name of the product
        data.Product_Name = e.target.innerHTML;
        // This URL comes from the connector in the flow / when an HTTP request is received / generated URL.
        var  requrl = "<Your URL>"
        var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
        req.open("POST",requrl,true);
        req.setRequestHeader("Accept","application/json");
        req.setRequestHeader("OData-MaxVersion","4.0");
        req.setRequestHeader("OData-Version","4.0");
        req.setRequestHeader("If-None-Match","null");
        req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/json ");
        req.send(JSON.stringify(data));
</script>

The Power Automate Flow is shown below.

The HTTP POST URL is the request URL in the above code.
