Enode Webhooks
When to Use This Skill
- Setting up Enode webhook handlers
- Debugging Enode signature verification failures
- Understanding Enode event types and payloads
- Handling
user:vehicle:updated, user:charger:updated, or user:battery:updated events
- Why is my Enode webhook signature verification (
x-enode-signature) failing?
Verification (core)
Enode signs the raw request body with HMAC-SHA1 keyed on the per-webhook secret you generated (min 128 bits) and supplied at webhook creation. The digest is sent in the x-enode-signature header formatted as sha1=<hex> (lowercase hex). Enode does not follow the Standard Webhooks spec. Pass the raw body, and compare timing-safe.
Node:
const crypto = require('crypto');
function verify(rawBody, signatureHeader, secret) {
const [algo, sig] = (signatureHeader || '').split('=');
if (algo !== 'sha1' || !sig) return false;
const expected = crypto.createHmac('sha1', secret).update(rawBody).digest('hex');
try {
return crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(sig), Buffer.from(expected));
} catch {
return false;
}
}
Python:
import hmac, hashlib
def verify(raw_body: bytes, signature_header: str, secret: str) -> bool:
algo, _, sig = (signature_header or "").partition("=")
if algo != "sha1" or not sig:
return False
expected = hmac.new(secret.encode(), raw_body, hashlib.sha1).hexdigest()
return hmac.compare_digest(sig, expected)

Payload Shape
The webhook body is a JSON array of events — a single delivery can carry multiple events. Iterate the array; each element has an event name, a createdAt timestamp, and a version:
[
{ "event": "user:vehicle:updated", "createdAt": "2020-04-07T17:04:26Z", "version": "..." }
]
Common Event Types
| Event | Description |
|---|
user:vehicle:updated | A linked vehicle's data changed |
user:charger:updated | A linked charger's data changed |
user:battery:updated | A linked home battery's data changed |
user:vehicle:discovered | A new vehicle was linked |
user:credentials:invalidated | A user's vendor credentials became invalid (needs re-link) |
system:heartbeat | Periodic liveness signal from Enode |
enode:webhook:test | Sent by the Test Webhook endpoint to verify your receiver |
For the full event reference, see Enode Webhook Events and references/overview.md.
Important Headers
| Header | Description |
|---|
x-enode-signature | HMAC SHA-1 signature formatted sha1=<hex> |
x-enode-delivery | Unique ID identifying the delivered payload |
Environment Variables
ENODE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_generated_secret
Enode does not return the secret — you generate it (e.g. openssl rand -hex 32) and supply it in the secret field of POST /webhooks.
Local Development
npx hookdeck-cli listen 3000 enode --path /webhooks/enode
