Webhooks
In this guide, we'll discuss how to use webhooks to integrate a custom app with Opal.
Setup
First, under Configuration > Settings on the left bar, navigate to Webhooks and fill out the URL for your webhook endpoint and click Save Changes.

A signing secret will be generated. Your system should use this secret to validate the webhook's origin. Please see this section for more details.
Next, navigate to the custom app(s) that you wish to configure webhooks for, and toggle "Webhook for access changes" to "Enabled".
The webhook endpoint is expected to reply to the HTTP POST request with an HTTP 200 response within 3 seconds of receiving the payload.
Payload samples
Opal is sending different payloads depending on the event type. The following event types are currently supported:
- Add users to resource
{
event_ts: 1643355931,
organization_id: 'eec5dcd9-fb0a-4726-b283-4379b524a772',
events: [
{
event_type: 'USER_ADDED_TO_RESOURCE',
resource_type: 'CUSTOM',
user_id: '[email protected]',
resource_id: '0eb35db24007c8148',
access_level: 'admin'
}
]
}
- Remove users from resource
{

{
event_type: 'USER_REMOVED_FROM_RESOURCE',
resource_type: 'CUSTOM',
user_id: '[email protected]',
resource_id: '0eb35db24007c8148',

]
}
- Add users to group

Verifying requests from Opal
Verify requests from Opal with confidence by checking signatures using your signing secret.
On each HTTP request that Opal sends, we add an X-Opal-Signature HTTP header. The signature is created by combining the signing secret with the body of the request we're sending using a standard HMAC-SHA256 keyed hash.
Here is an example with Node to compute the signature using your signing secret. You may compare it against the value retrieved from the X-Opal-Signature header
const timestamp = request.header('X-Opal-Request-Timestamp')
const signingSecret = 'SIGNING_SECRET'
const sigBaseString = 'v0:' + timestamp + ':' + JSON.stringify(request.body)
const hmac = crypto.createHmac('sha256', signingSecret);
hmac.write(sigBaseString)
console.log(hmac.digest('hex'))
