# Groq Webhooks & Events
## Overview
Securely handle Groq webhooks with signature validation and replay protection.
## Prerequisites
- Groq webhook secret configured
- HTTPS endpoint accessible from internet
- Understanding of cryptographic signatures
- Redis or database for idempotency (optional)
## Webhook Endpoint Setup
### Express.js
```typescript
import express from 'express';
import crypto from 'crypto';
const app = express();
// IMPORTANT: Raw body needed for signature verification
app.post('/webhooks/groq',
express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }),
async (req, res) => {
const signature = req.headers['x-groq-signature'] as string;
const timestamp = req.headers['x-groq-timestamp'] as string;
if (!verifyGroqSignature(req.body, signature, timestamp)) {
return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid signature' });
}
const event = JSON.parse(req.body.toString());
await handleGroqEvent(event);
res.status(200).json({ received: true });
}
);
```
## Signature Verification
```typescript
function verifyGroqSignature(
payload: Buffer,
signature: string,
timestamp: string
): boolean {
const secret = process.env.GROQ_WEBHOOK_SECRET!;
// Reject old timestamps (replay attack protection)
const timestampAge = Date.now() - parseInt(timestamp) * 1000;
if (timestampAge > 300000) { // 5 minutes
console.error('Webhook timestamp too old');
return false;
}
// Compute expected signature
const signedPayload = `${timestamp}.${payload.toString()}`;
const expectedSignature = crypto
.createHmac('sha256', secret)
.update(signedPayload)
.digest('hex');
// Timing-safe comparison
return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
Buffer.from(signature),
Buffer.from(expectedSignature)
);
}
```
## Event Handler Pattern
```typescript
type GroqEventType = 'resource.created' | 'resource.updated' | 'resource.deleted';
interface GroqEvent {
id: string;
type: GroqEventType;
data: Record;
created: string;
}
const eventHandlers: Record Promise> = {
'resource.created': async (data) => { /* handle */ },
'resource.updated': async (data) => { /* handle */ },
'resource.deleted': async (data) => { /* handle */ }
};
async function handleGroqEvent(event: GroqEvent): Promise {
const handler = eventHandlers[event.type];
if (!handler) {
console.log(`Unhandled event type: ${event.type}`);
return;
}
try {
await handler(event.data);
console.log(`Processed ${event.type}: ${event.id}`);
} catch (error) {
console.error(`Failed to process ${event.type}: ${event.id}`, error);
throw error; // Rethrow to trigger retry
}
}
```
## Idempotency Handling
```typescript
import { Redis } from 'ioredis';
const redis = new Redis(process.env.REDIS_URL);
async function isEventProcessed(eventId: string): Promise {
const key = `groq:event:${eventId}`;
const exists = await redis.exists(key);
return exists === 1;
}
async function markEventProcessed(eventId: string): Promise {
const key = `groq:event:${eventId}`;
await redis.set(key, '1', 'EX', 86400 * 7); // 7 days TTL
}
```
## Webhook Testing
```bash
# Use Groq CLI to send test events
groq webhooks trigger resource.created --url http://localhost:3000/webhooks/groq
# Or use webhook.site for debugging
curl -X POST https://webhook.site/your-uuid \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"type": "resource.created", "data": {}}'
```
## Instructions
### Step 1: Register Webhook Endpoint
Configure your webhook URL in the Groq dashboard.
### Step 2: Implement Signature Verification
Use the signature verification code to validate incoming webhooks.
### Step 3: Handle Events
Implement handlers for each event type your application needs.
### Step 4: Add Idempotency
Prevent duplicate processing with event ID tracking.
## Output
- Secure webhook endpoint
- Signature validation enabled
- Event handlers implemented
- Replay attack protection active
## Error Handling
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Invalid signature | Wrong secret | Verify webhook secret |
| Timestamp rejected | Clock drift | Check server time sync |
| Duplicate events | Missing idempotency | Implement event ID tracking |
| Handler timeout | Slow processing | Use async queue |
## Examples
### Testing Webhooks Locally
```bash
# Use ngrok to expose local server
ngrok http 3000
# Send test webhook
curl -X POST https://your-ngrok-url/webhooks/groq \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"type": "test", "data": {}}'
```
