It is currently in alpha: endpoints and schemas may change without notice.\n\n## Webhooks\n\nWebhooks notify your systems when resources change in Twice. A webhook subscription pairs one event type with one HTTPS endpoint of yours; whenever a matching event occurs, we POST the event to that endpoint. Subscriptions and their delivery logs are managed in the Twice admin under **Account → Integrations**.\n\n### Event types\n\n- `order.created`\n- `order.deleted`\n- `order.updated`\n\n### Payload\n\nEvery delivery is an HTTP POST with a JSON body sharing a common envelope. The typed payload of each event type is documented in the **Webhooks** section of the sidebar.\n\n```json\n{\n\t\"eventId\": \"5f2eb3a6-6cbd-4a2e-9350-6e0d1e2f9a11\",\n\t\"eventType\": \"order.created\",\n\t\"eventTime\": \"2026-08-06T12:34:56.789Z\",\n\t\"resource\": \"order\",\n\t\"resourceId\": \"0d9e0a7c-3fd1-4c8f-9c0d-2b7c6f7f2a55\",\n\t\"apiVersion\": \"2025-06\",\n\t\"data\": { \"…\": \"the API representation of the resource, or null for deletes\" }\n}\n```\n\n`data` carries the resource in the same shape the REST API returns it, as of the API version in `apiVersion`. Each subscription is pinned to the API version that was the latest when the subscription was created, so a new API version never changes the payload shape you receive — moving to a newer version is an explicit update of the subscription.\n\n### Acknowledging deliveries\n\nRespond with any **2xx** status to acknowledge a delivery. Any other status — or a timeout — counts as a failed attempt. Respond as quickly as possible and do heavy processing asynchronously after acknowledging.\n\n### Delivery semantics\n\nDeliveries are **at-least-once**: the same event can occasionally be delivered more than once, so deduplicate on the `X-Twice-Event-Id` header (or the equal `eventId` body field). Ordering is not guaranteed — when it matters, use `eventTime` or re-fetch the current state of the resource via the API.\n\n### Retries\n\nFailed deliveries are retried up to 3 times (4 attempts in total) with growing backoff — roughly 10 s, 20 s, 40 s after the preceding attempt — giving up 10 minutes after the first attempt. After 3 consecutive events fail all their attempts, the subscription is automatically disabled (`disabledReason: TOO_MANY_FAILED_DELIVERY_ATTEMPTS`) and must be re-enabled manually in the admin. Individual deliveries can also be redelivered manually from the delivery log.\n\n### Verifying signatures\n\nEach subscription has a signing secret (prefixed `whsec_`), available in the admin. Deliveries carry an HMAC-SHA256 signature of the exact raw request body in the `X-Twice-Signature` header, formatted `sha256=`. Verify it against the raw body bytes — parse the JSON only after the signature checks out:\n\n```js\nimport { createHmac, timingSafeEqual } from 'node:crypto';\n\nconst expected = 'sha256=' + createHmac('sha256', secret).update(rawBody, 'utf8').digest('hex');\nconst signature = req.headers['x-twice-signature'];\nconst isValid =\n\ttypeof signature === 'string' &&\n\tsignature.length === expected.length &&\n\ttimingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(signature), Buffer.from(expected));\n```" version: 2025-06 servers: -
