# Register a webhook endpoint

POST https://tryenvoy.ai/api/v1/webhooks/endpoints
Content-Type: application/json

Create a webhook endpoint and receive its signing secret. The secret is returned exactly once in this response — store it immediately; it cannot be retrieved later.

**Authentication:** Supports API key and bearer token authentication.

Reference: https://docs.tryenvoy.ai/api-reference/endpoints/api/create-endpoint-api-v-1-webhooks-endpoints-post

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Servers

- `https://tryenvoy.ai/api/v1` (Production, default)
- `https://staging.tryenvoy.ai/api/v1` (Staging)

## Request

### Headers

- `X-Organization-ID` (string, optional, nullable)
- `Idempotency-Key` (string, optional) — A unique key (up to 255 printable ASCII characters, e.g. a UUID) that makes a retry of this request safe. Envoy stores the response for 24 hours; a retry with the same key and the same request returns it again with `Idempotent-Replayed: true` instead of running twice. The same key with a different request returns 422 `idempotency_key_reused`; while the first request is still running, 409 `idempotency_key_in_progress`. 5xx and 429 responses are not stored.

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects a WebhookEndpointCreateRequest.

- `url` (string, required) — HTTPS URL we will POST events to
- `event_types` (list of string, required) — Allowlist of event type names (e.g. ['elp_test.scored']). Must contain at least one entry.
- `description` (string, optional, nullable)
- `headers` (map from string to string, optional, nullable) — Optional static headers we will include on every request to this endpoint.

## Response

### 201

Successful Response

- `id` (string, required)
- `organization_id` (string, required)
- `url` (string, required)
- `description` (string, required, nullable)
- `event_types` (list of string, required)
- `headers` (map from string to string, required, nullable)
- `status` (enum, required) — Endpoint lifecycle state. ``DISABLED`` is reserved for automatic disable by the auto-disable job; ``PAUSED`` is explicitly paused and indicates intent to resume.
  - Allowed values: `ACTIVE`, `PAUSED`, `DISABLED`
- `disabled_reason` (string, required, nullable)
- `created_at` (datetime, required)
- `updated_at` (datetime, required)
- `signing_secret` (string, required) — `whsec_<base64>` — store this; it is not retrievable later.

## Errors

### 401 Unauthorized Error

Not authenticated - missing or invalid token/API key

- `any`

### 403 Forbidden Error

Insufficient permissions for this operation

- `any`

### 409 Conflict Error

`idempotency_key_in_progress`: a request with this Idempotency-Key is still running; retry later

- `any`

### 422 Unprocessable Entity Error

Validation Error; or `idempotency_key_reused`: this Idempotency-Key was already used for a different request

- `detail` (list of ValidationError, optional)

### 429 Too Many Requests Error

Rate limit exceeded - see Retry-After header

- `any`

## Types

### ValidationError

- `loc` (list of ValidationErrorLocItems, required)
- `msg` (string, required)
- `type` (string, required)
- `input` (any, optional)
- `ctx` (ValidationErrorCtx, optional)

### ValidationErrorLocItems

### ValidationErrorCtx
