Go-live checklist
Learn the steps to take an Empath webhook integration from design to production with confidence.
Learn the checks to complete before you rely on webhooks in production.
Checklist
- Decide which questions you're automating (assigned, completed, failed). Only subscribe to Content published if you have a use for it.
- Build your Empath user ID mapping, or turn on personal data and match on email. See “Identify people: user IDs or personal data”.
- Stand up an HTTPS receiver that verifies the signature, de-duplicates on
idand answers 2xx fast. See “Build a receiver: the recommended pattern”. - Create the webhook and store the signing secret. See “Create a webhook: Review & test and the signing secret”.
- Run Test webhook in the wizard, then again on the saved row. The row test proves your signature check.
- Assign a real course to a real person and confirm a live
course.assignedarrives (idstarts withwhk_). - Complete that course and confirm
course.completedarrives. - Check Delivered, Failed and health after your first deployments, and keep Webhook & account alerts on so you hear about outages.
