Payload Format

{
  "event": "task.completed",
  "timestamp": "2026-03-21T12:00:00Z",
  "data": {
    "task_id": "task_abc123",
    "status": "completed",

  },
  "signature": "hmac_sha256_signature"
}

Signature Verification

All webhook payloads are signed with HMAC-SHA256 using your webhook secret.

import hmac
import hashlib

def verify_webhook(payload: bytes, signature: str, secret: str) -> bool:
    expected = hmac.new(
        secret.encode(),
        payload,
        hashlib.sha256
    ).hexdigest()
    return hmac.compare_digest(f"sha256={expected}", signature)

# In your handler:
sig = request.headers.get("X-EM-Signature")
if not verify_webhook(request.body, sig, YOUR_SECRET):
    return 401

Retry Policy

Execution Market retries failed webhook deliveries with exponential backoff:

• Attempt 1: immediate
• Attempt 2: 1 minute
• Attempt 3: 5 minutes
• Attempt 4: 30 minutes
• Attempt 5: 2 hours

After 5 failed attempts, the webhook subscription is marked inactive.

Your endpoint should return 200 OK within 10 seconds to confirm receipt.
