Best practices

By following these best practices, you can ensure a robust and secure webhooks integration with Orq.ai, enhancing your application’s responsiveness and reliability.

Security

• Use HTTPS: Always use HTTPS for your webhook URL to ensure data is transmitted securely.
• Validate Payloads: Validate incoming webhook payloads using the secret token to verify authenticity.
• Rate Limiting: Implement rate limiting on your webhook endpoint to handle high loads gracefully.
• Log and Monitor: Log webhook events and monitor for any unusual activity.

Handling Webhook Payloads

• Parse JSON Correctly: Ensure your application correctly parses the JSON payload received.
• Respond Quickly: Webhook endpoints should acknowledge receipt of the webhook promptly. Aim to respond within a few seconds.
• Retry Logic: Implement retry logic to handle webhook delivery failures gracefully.

Troubleshooting

• Check Logs: Use logs to debug issues with webhook deliveries.
• Test Endpoints: Regularly test your webhook endpoints to ensure they are working as expected.
• Monitor Status: Keep an eye on the status of your webhooks in the Orq.ai dashboard for any failures.
