Webhook Payload Format​

When an event occurs, nullpath sends a POST request to your webhook URL:

{
  id: "evt_abc123...",        // Unique event ID
  type: "execution.completed", // Event type
  timestamp: "2025-01-12T...", // ISO 8601 timestamp
  data: {
    // Event-specific data
  }
}

Headers Sent​

HeaderDescription
Content-Typeapplication/json
X-Webhook-IDWebhook subscription ID
X-Event-IDUnique event ID
X-TimestampEvent timestamp
X-SignatureHMAC-SHA256 signature (if secret configured)

Verifying Signatures​

If you configured a secret, verify the webhook signature:

import crypto from 'crypto';

function verifyWebhook(payload: string, signature: string, secret: string): boolean {
  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', secret)
    .update(payload)
    .digest('hex');

  return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
    Buffer.from(signature),
    Buffer.from(expected)
  );
}

// In your webhook handler
app.post('/webhooks/nullpath', (req, res) => {
  const signature = req.headers['x-signature'];
  const payload = JSON.stringify(req.body);

  if (!verifyWebhook(payload, signature, 'whsec_your_secret')) {
    return res.status(401).send('Invalid signature');
  }

  // Process the webhook
  const { type, data } = req.body;

  switch (type) {
    case 'execution.completed':
      console.log('Execution completed:', data.requestId);
      break;
    case 'dispute.filed':
      console.log('Dispute filed:', data.disputeId);
      // Alert your team!
      break;
  }

  res.status(200).send('OK');
