Webhooks ni system
FixVibe sends signed outbound webhooks for scan completion, terminal failures, high-severity findings, live monitor alerts, and scheduled runs. Deliveries are at-least-once and retry for about 24 hours.
Setup
Open Account โ Webhooks, create an HTTPS endpoint, and store the one-time whsec_ secret in your receiver. Webhooks are available on paid plans.
- Create an endpoint from Account โ Webhooks.
- Choose which events FixVibe should send to that endpoint.
- Copy the secret immediately; it is shown once and can only be rotated later.
Events
The launch event surface covers the moments teams usually wire into CI, alerting, or ticketing:
- scan.completed โ fires when a scan transitions to completed. Payload: scan id, target, mode, severity-bucket counts, link to the report.
- scan.failed โ terminal-failure notification. Payload: scan id, failure reason, and report link when available.
- finding.created โ emitted per critical or high finding. Lower severities collapse into scan.completed by default to avoid event spam.
- monitor.alert.fired โ fires on the Unlimited plan when certificate transparency logs, DNS records, or threat-intelligence databases detect changes.
- schedule.run.queued โ fires when the scheduler enqueues a re-scan. Useful for CI orchestration.
Payload shape
Every delivery uses the same envelope: <code>id</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>created_at</code>, and event-specific <code>data</code>.

}Signing
FixVibe signs the exact raw JSON body with HMAC-SHA-256. Verify the signature before parsing or trusting event data. Headers:
fixvibe-signature: t=<timestamp>,v1=<hex hmac>fixvibe-event: scan.completedfixvibe-delivery: <uuid>(idempotency key)
import { createHmac, timingSafeEqual } from "node:crypto";
function verify(rawBody: string, header: string, secret: string) {
const parts = Object.fromEntries(header.split(",").map((p) => p.split("=")));
const signed = `${parts.t}.${rawBody}`;
const expected = createHmac("sha256", secret).update(signed).digest("hex");
const received = Buffer.from(parts.v1 ?? "", "hex");
const calculated = Buffer.from(expected, "hex");
return received.length === calculated.length && timingSafeEqual(received, calculated);
}Retries
Any non-2xx response, timeout, DNS failure, or delivery safety rejection is retried with exponential backoff for about 24 hours. Delivery rows show response status, a short response excerpt, attempt count, and dead-letter state in Account โ Webhooks.
