Overview

Sends a synthetic webhook.test event through the same signing and retry pipeline as production deliveries, but a failed test does not count toward auto-disable. Use it to probe an endpoint without risking your production deliveries getting disabled. This endpoint isn’t billed.

Requires the portfolios:manage scope.

No receiver yet? See Testing deliveries before you have a receiver for a pattern that lets you inspect real signed deliveries in minutes.

Path Parameters

id · string · required

Endpoint ID (whk_*).

Response

object · string

Always "webhook_test".

delivery_attempt_id · string

UUID of the new attempt row. Track it via List Webhook Deliveries.

request_id · string

Request identifier.

Errors

Status	type	When
404	not_found	Endpoint doesn’t exist or belongs to another org

Code Examples

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.signa.so/v1/webhooks/whk_2mR8vNkT/test" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sig_YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: test-whk-2mR8vNkT-2026-06-12"

import { Signa } from "@signa-so/sdk";
const signa = new Signa({ api_key: process.env.SIGNA_API_KEY });

const result = await signa.webhooks.test("whk_2mR8vNkT");
console.log(result.delivery_attempt_id);

{
  "object": "webhook_test",
  "delivery_attempt_id": "018f9b2e-0000-7000-8000-000000000030",
  "request_id": "req_5nRvXq2T"
