Webhook Failure Verdict
This page provides a decision-oriented verdict only. It does not offer fixes or implementation guidance.
When continuing to debug is likely justified
- You can consistently observe inbound requests.
- Failures occur after the request reaches your system.
- The issue is reproducible under controlled conditions.
When continuing to debug is unlikely to help
- No inbound request reaches your infrastructure.
- Delivery evidence cannot be independently verified.
- The failure depends on external systems you do not control.
High uncertainty / stop-risk
- You cannot obtain a ground-truth request.
- Logs or claims from the sender are inconsistent.
- Further debugging only increases sunk cost.
Verdict framing you can reuse:
- “Continuing to debug is unlikely to help without a confirmed inbound request.”
- “This failure is commonly external or non-actionable at the application layer.”
