To test webhooks in Sandbox:
  1. Create a webhook in your Sandbox Dashboard account targeting your test endpoint
  2. Use the Test feature in Dashboard to send a test event to your webhook
  3. Verify your consumer receives the event with is_test=true
  4. Optionally, you can trigger real events such as using the CreateIdentity API to create a new identity and receive an identity.approved event
For more details, see Test a Webhook in the Dashboard guide or the Get Started with Webhooks guide.
If your consumer failed to process a message, Paxos will attempt to retry for up to 24 hours, read the full retry policy for more information. After this you can use the List Events API to fetch undelivered events and process them.
Yes, webhook invocations to your consumer endpoint are rate-limited. When configuring a webhook via the Dashboard, you can set the rate limit from 1 to 100 requests per second. The default is 10 requests per second. For more information, see our rate limits documentation.
After creating a webhook via the Dashboard, use the Test feature to send test events to your webhook endpoint. These events will be marked with is_test=true.For step-by-step instructions, see Test a Webhook in the Dashboard guide.
