Sample payload and signature

We've provided a sample_notification method to generate a parsable signature and payload. This allows you to generate a sample notification and POST the contents of the payload and signature to your application to test your webhook handling code.

sample_notification = gateway.webhook_testing.sample_notification(
  Braintree::WebhookNotification::Kind::SubscriptionWentPastDue,
  "my_id"
)

webhook_notification = gateway.webhook_notification.parse(
  sample_notification[:bt_signature],
  sample_notification[:bt_payload]
)

webhook_notification.subscription.id
# => "my_id"

Sample payload and signature

We've provided a {{lookup viewModel.prefix serverSdk.name}}sample_notification

method to generate a parsable signature and payload. This allows you to generate a sample notification and POST the contents of the payload and signature to your application to test your webhook handling code.

1. Log into the Control Panel
2. Click on the gear icon in the top right corner
3. Click API from the drop-down menu
4. Click on the Webhooks tab
5. Click the Check URL link located to the right of the URL you'd like to check

Be careful when using this check in production – if your webhook handling code doesn’t look for the kind of webhooks it receives, this could lead to unexpected behavior.

For example, if your integration assumes it will only receive Subscription Canceled webhooks and you test the URL, it might cause an exception when your code tries to access the non-existent subscription object on the webhook.
