Webhooks

If you prefer the traditional push model, you can configure webhooks. We will send a POST request to your URL for every event.

Payload

The payload structure is identical to the Event object used in streams.

Event Types

Security: Verifying Signatures

We verify the identity of the sender using Svix conventions (standard HTTP headers).
Always verify webhook signatures before processing. Never trust the payload without verification.

Creating a Webhook

You can create webhooks via the dashboard or the API:

Retry Policy

We retry failed webhook deliveries with exponential backoff: After 6 failed attempts, the webhook is marked as failing and paused. You can re-enable it from the dashboard.
