Webhooks

This topic describes how to set up a webhook listener for Optimizely Agent.

Optimizely Agent implements a webhook listener used to receive inbound Webhook requests from optimizely.com. These webhooks enable PUSH-style notifications triggering immediate project configuration updates.

The webhook listener is configured on its own port (default: 8085) since it can be configured to select traffic from the internet.

To accept webhook requests Agent must be configured by mapping an Optimizely Project Id to a set of SDK keys along with the associated secret used for validating the inbound request. An example webhook configuration can be seen below, while the full example configuration can be found in the provided config.yaml.

##

        <project-id>:
            ## sdkKeys: a list of SDKs linked to this project
            sdkKeys:
                - <sdk-key-1>
                - <sdk-key-1>
            ## secret: webhook secret used the validate the notification
            secret: <secret-10000>
            ## skipSignatureCheck: override the signature check (not recommended for production)
