  1. Add HMAC payload signing for General Webhooks

    General Webhooks authenticate via a token in the URL works, but URL tokens can leak through server logs and proxies.

    this is usually solved with HMAC-SHA256 signing. A signature header computed from the request body using a shared secret. The receiver verifies the hash, the URL stays non-sensitive.

    We're building on the Connector API and had to add workarounds to compensate.

    - order.state.updated - Only fires on state changes (e.g., open→paid), not on initial creation
    - order.status.updated - Fires on fulfillment status changes, but not triggered when order is created
    - order.total.updated - Only fires on tip/correction changes
    - order.payments.added - Fires when payment is added (too late for…

  3. hotel folio webhook

    It looks like Bills are not supported in your General Webhooks events. It would be useful to have a BillPaid event to hook into after which customer and folio details could be requested!
