The Message webhook is a powerful tool that enables real-time, programmatic responses to messages received on your Dexatel sender IDs.

Here, you'll find information on webhook configuration, expected payloads, and practical examples to help you effectively leverage this feature in your communication strategies.
Signature Header
Dexatel signs every webhook request message sent to the user. The signature of each message is computed using the HMAC_SHA256 hashing algorithm, which takes the payload of the webhook, signs with the secret, and sends the computed hash code in the X-Dexatel-Signature header of the request.
