Ask your AI assistant:

- "Apply the Bootspring webhooks pattern to my project"
Key Considerations#
- Always verify webhook signatures; never process unverified events
- Handle events idempotently since Stripe may send the same event multiple times
- Return 200 status quickly and process heavy work asynchronously if needed
- Log all webhook events to maintain an audit trail for debugging payment issues
- Monitor webhook processing failures and set up alerts for repeated errors
