Cryptographic Signature Verification

To prevent spoofing, FlagPilot signs each webhook delivery with an HMAC-SHA256 signature computed from the delivery timestamp and the raw JSON payload, using the webhook endpoint's signing secret. The hex-encoded signature is sent in the X-FlagPilot-Signature header, alongside X-FlagPilot-Event (the event type) and X-FlagPilot-Timestamp (ISO-8601). Verify the signature like this:

const crypto = require('crypto');

const expectedSignature = crypto
  .createHmac('sha256', signingSecret)
  .update(`${timestampHeader}.${rawBodyString}`)
  .digest('hex');

// Compare against the X-FlagPilot-Signature header using a
// constant-time comparison (e.g. crypto.timingSafeEqual).

Timeout & Retry Policy

FlagPilot enforces a 5-second connection timeout per delivery attempt. Retries only trigger on a network error or a 500/502/503/504 response — any other non-2xx status is treated as a permanent failure and is not retried. Up to 4 attempts total, with fixed delays between each:

• 1st Attempt: Immediate trigger
• 2nd Attempt: After 5 seconds delay
• 3rd Attempt: After 30 seconds delay
• 4th Attempt: After 2 minutes delay

Delivery history is retained per your plan: 1 day on Free, 30 days on Solo, 90 days on Pro, and 365 days on Business.
