⚙️ Configuration

Webhook Limits

• Maximum of 50 webhooks per Hedy account
• Webhooks must use HTTPS URLs
• Each webhook receives a unique signing secret for security

Pagination

• Default page size: 50 items
• Maximum page size: 100 items
• Supports cursor-based pagination for large datasets

Rate Limiting

The API follows standard rate limiting practices. If you encounter rate limit errors, implement exponential backoff in your workflows.

🔒 Security

Webhook Signature Verification

All webhooks include an X-Hedy-Signature header for verification:

1. The signature is an HMAC SHA-256 hash of the request body
2. Each webhook has a unique signing secret
3. Signature verification is disabled by default (enable in Options when signing secrets are available)

API Key Security

• Never share your API key publicly
• Rotate keys regularly (every 90 days recommended)
• Use n8n's built-in credential encryption
• Keys can be revoked instantly from the Hedy dashboard

🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Webhook Registration Fails

• Ensure your n8n instance uses HTTPS
• Check you haven't exceeded the 50 webhook limit
• Verify your API key has the necessary permissions

No Data Returned

• Verify the resource ID exists
• Check your API key is valid
• Ensure you have access to the requested resource

Signature Verification Fails

• Don't modify webhook payloads
• Ensure signature verification is using the correct secret
• Check for clock skew between servers
