Introduction to Webhooks

Sahha processes millions of rows of log data with the primary objective of producing insightful inference results. If needed, we have the capacity to forward the data events we obtain to a selected endpoint of your choice.


Webhooks are the preferred approach for accessing Sahha data

Webhooks offer a real-time, efficient, and customizable method for accessing Sahha data, allowing you to only receive the specific event data you need. Enhancing data processing efficiency, security, and cost-effectiveness.

How can I use webhooks?

Webhooks can be setup within the Sahha Dashboard under the webhooks tab on the side-nav


Security

To know for sure that a webhook was, in fact, sent by Sahha instead of a malicious actor, you can verify the request signature. Each webhook request contains a header named X-Signature, and you can verify this signature by using your secret webhook key. The signature is an HMAC hash of the request payload hashed using your secret key.

If your generated signature matches the X-Signature header, you can be sure that the request was coming from Sahha.

Identifying profiles

Each payload has a header X-External-Id which contains the external identifier provided by you when registering your profile, this will allow you to identify the profile the events are related to.

Identifying events

In order to determine the appropriate event type to deserialize the payload into, you should examine the value present in the X-Event-Type header.


Events

Below are the events that will be fired to your elected URL, please review the code sample above for how to consume these correctly.
