# Set Up Webhooks and Automation

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create destination endpoint">
    Provision a stable HTTPS endpoint that returns explicit status codes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Subscribe to required events only">
    Select only events required by your automation workflow.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set secret and verify signatures">
    Configure receiver-side signature verification before production enablement.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run test and replay scenarios">
    Validate test delivery, retries, and duplicate handling.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable observability">
    Track delivery latency and failures with owner/on-call routing.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Reliability requirements

* receiver verifies signature
* receiver handles retries idempotently
* failure alerts are routed to on-call owner

## Webhook reliability checklist

* Receiver verifies signature and timestamp.
* Receiver is idempotent for retries.
* Error responses are explicit (4xx for validation, 5xx for transient errors).
* Delivery failures are monitored and routed to owner/on-call.
