Check that a webhook really came from the sender: paste the shared secret, the raw request body and the signature header to verify an HMAC-SHA256 signature, or generate one for a test request.
For Edesy missed call webhooks, see verify the signature with Node.js, Python and PHP code.
Runs in your browser with Web Crypto. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Paste the body exactly as received, before any JSON parsing. Prefilled with a sample Edesy call.missed event.
For example the X-Edesy-Signature or X-Hub-Signature-256 value. Bare hex also works.
Enter the webhook secret you set with the sender.
Copy the request body exactly as received, before any JSON parsing.
Add the received value, like sha256=<hex> from X-Edesy-Signature or X-Hub-Signature-256.
See valid or invalid, and copy the computed signature for a test request.
Sign the raw bytes, not parsed JSON. The sender signs the exact bytes it sent. If your framework parses the JSON and you re-serialise it, spacing, key order, unicode escapes or a trailing newline can change, and the HMAC no longer matches. Read the raw body (for example express.raw() in Express or request.get_data() in Flask) and verify before parsing.
Compare in constant time. A normal string comparison stops at the first different character, so its timing can leak how much of a guessed signature was right. Use crypto.timingSafeEqual (Node.js), hmac.compare_digest (Python) or hash_equals (PHP). This tool compares the decoded bytes the same way.
Match the format. Some senders prefix the hex digest with sha256=, others send bare hex or base64. This tool accepts sha256=<hex> and bare hex.
Reject and log. Answer 401 when the check fails, and keep secrets out of logs. Rotate the secret on both sides at the same time.
The sender computes HMAC-SHA256 of the request body with a secret only you and it know, and sends the result in a header. You compute the same value on your side; if they match, the request came from the sender and the body was not changed.
Almost always because the body was changed before verifying: parsed and re-serialised JSON, a trailing newline, a different character encoding or a proxy that rewrites the body. Verify against the raw bytes you received.
The tool runs entirely in your browser with the Web Crypto API and makes no network requests with your data. Even so, prefer a test or staging secret, and rotate any secret you have shared.
Edesy missed call webhooks send X-Edesy-Signature: sha256=<hex>, the HMAC-SHA256 of the raw body keyed with your webhook secret. Without a secret the header is not sent. Retries and replays carry the same call_sid, so you can drop duplicates.
Yes, for any provider that signs the raw body with HMAC-SHA256 and sends hex, like GitHub's X-Hub-Signature-256. Providers that sign a timestamp plus the body (for example Stripe's t=...,v1=... scheme) need the signed string built first: paste that string as the body and the v1 value as the signature.
A comparison that takes the same time whether the first or the last character differs, so an attacker cannot guess a valid signature one character at a time from response timing.
Best practices for missed call webhooks: HMAC-SHA256 signature verification over the raw body, fast 2xx responses, retry behaviour, idempotency on call_sid, replay and monitoring, with Node and Python code.
