Payload

Content-Type: application/json
User-Agent: AppName-Webhooks/1.0
X-Webhook-Signature: t=1713232500,v1=5a3c2b...

{
  "id": "uuid",
  "created_at": "2026-04-16T12:00:00Z",
  "event_type": "verification.sms.verified",
  "app_id": "uuid",

}

​
Signature verification

The X-Webhook-Signature header contains a timestamp and HMAC: 
t=1713232500,v1=5a3c2b...
Verify: 
const crypto = require("crypto");

function verifyWebhook(payload, header, secret) {
  const [tPart, sigPart] = header.split(",");
  const timestamp = tPart.replace("t=", "");
  const signature = sigPart.replace("v1=", "");

  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac("sha256", secret)
    .update(`${timestamp}.${payload}`)
    .digest("hex");

  return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
    Buffer.from(signature),
    Buffer.from(expected)
  );
}

verification.*.verifiedContact confirmed (magic link click, OTP code, or consent approval)
verification.*.expiredTimed out. Fires even if the link was never opened
verification.*.failedOTP max attempts exceeded
verification.*.deniedContact denied the action (consent mode)
verification.*.delivery_failedSMS/email failed to send (bad number, provider error)
Verification payloads include:

  "data": {
    "verification_id": "uuid",
    "intent": "Password Reset",
