Webhooks
Rotate an endpoint's signing secret, with a 24-hour overlap
POST /v1/webhooks/{webhook_id}/rotate-secret
- Scope
webhooks:write- Tier
- Tier 1
- Data
- Account data
- Idempotency
- Idempotency-Key: required
The new secret is shown once. For 24 hours every delivery carries both signatures (DialerBee-Signature: sha256=<new>,sha256=<old>), so you can switch your receiver without losing events. After previous_secret_expires_at only the new secret signs. secret is null only on a replayed answer (Idempotency-Replayed: true). DialerBee never stores the secret; if you lost it, rotate it. The body must be empty or {}.
Parameters
| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
webhook_id | path | string (WebhookEndpointId) | yes | |
Idempotency-Key | header | string | yes | Your unique value for this logical operation (a UUID is fine). Scoped to your API client, kept 24 hours. (min length 1; max length 255) |
X-Correlation-ID | header | string | no | Your own trace value, logged with the request. Metadata only, never identity. (min length 1; max length 128) |
Request body
Empty, or {}.
JSON: EmptyRequest (optional)
Response
200: The new secret (shown once).
| Header | Meaning |
|---|---|
X-Request-ID | The DialerBee request id. Quote it to support. Every response carries X-Request-ID: req_<ULID>, or edge_<32 hex> when the edge answered before the request reached the API. |
Cache-Control | Always no-store. |
Idempotency-Replayed | true when this answer is the stored answer of an earlier request with the same Idempotency-Key. |
