Webhooks

Webhooks notify your application when events occur in Cerebrum. Use these guides to validate incoming requests and test how your application handles them.

Build and test your handler

Configure a destination for your notifications, then validate incoming signatures before processing the payload. Use a simulated webhook to exercise your handler during development.

Validate webhook signatures

Find your signing secret and verify incoming requests using Svix headers.

Test with a simulated webhook

Trigger a sample order notification to check your webhook processing flow.

Check the webhook contract

Use the Webhooks reference for the notification format and delivery behavior:

Event types — identify which changes trigger notifications.
Payload JSON schema — look up the fields in a notification.
Response requirements — return the response expected by the delivery service.
Delivery and retry policy — understand what happens when delivery fails.
Webhook Portal — configure destinations and inspect delivery attempts.
