TechWolf Webhooks

Webhooks let you receive real-time change notifications from TechWolf. When something changes in your tenant, TechWolf sends a POST request to your endpoint over HTTPS. We use thin events: each payload only signals that something changed and provides identifiers (e.g. tenant, resource external_id), not the full details of the changed resource. Querying the SkillEngine API is required to get the authoritative state of the changed resource. This section describes: Consumers only need to support the event types they care about. The health check event type is mandatory for every consumer so TechWolf can verify your endpoint is live and functioning.

Consumer responsibilities

  • Expose an HTTPS endpoint and allowlist our source IPs.
  • Accept the health check event type on every webhook endpoint so TechWolf can verify the endpoint is live.
  • Verify signatures and validate timestamp freshness; return 2XX on successful receipt of a valid message, 401 on verification failure, 400 on invalid request.
  • Handle at-least-once delivery: deduplicate by event id and implement idempotent processing.
  • Fetch full state from the SkillEngine API; the payload only contains identifiers and metadata, not the resource itself.
  • Recommended: run a periodic reconciliation in addition to webhooks to correct any drift.
