Webhook Testing

The Webhook Testing page lets you send test webhook events to your configured endpoint to verify your integration is working correctly.

Webhook Testing page with current webhook configuration, event type selector, payload editor, and send button

The Webhook Testing page lets you select an event type, edit the payload in place, and send test webhooks to your endpoint.

Quick Start

  1. Navigate to Webhook Testing in the sidebar.
  2. Select an event type from the dropdown (e.g., candidate.created) — a sample payload loads into the editor automatically.
  3. Optionally edit the JSON in place. Use View Schema to inspect the expected fields, or Reset to sample to restore the generated payload.
  4. Click Send Test Webhook to deliver the event to your endpoint.
  5. Check the result panel and your endpoint logs to verify receipt.

Test webhooks include a X-CarvOS-Test: true header so you can identify them in your logs. They use real HMAC-SHA256 signatures and match the production webhook format exactly.
