Webhook validation is required for all new webhooks created after October 23, 2022.
All webhooks created prior to this date will not require validation unless you make changes to them. Webhook validation will be required for all new and existing webhooks as of October 2023.
The previous validation process, using the verification token (which was optional), will no longer be supported after October 2023.
Actions recommended:
- Use the new webhook validation logic to validate webhooks created after October 2022 and upgrade existing webhooks to use this process by October 22, 2023.
- Update your app’s webhook verification logic to use the secret token to replace the validation token by October 22, 2023.
