# Resend Webhooks
## When to Use This Skill
- Setting up Resend webhook handlers
- Debugging signature verification failures
- Understanding Resend event types and payloads
- Handling email delivery events (sent, delivered, bounced, etc.)
- Processing inbound emails via `email.received` events
## Essential Code (USE THIS)
### Express Webhook Handler (Using Resend SDK)
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const { Resend } = require('resend');
const resend = new Resend(process.env.RESEND_API_KEY);
const app = express();
// CRITICAL: Use express.raw() for webhook endpoint - Resend needs raw body
app.post('/webhooks/resend',
express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }),
async (req, res) => {
try {
// Verify signature using Resend SDK (uses Svix under the hood)
const event = resend.webhooks.verify({
payload: req.body.toString(),
headers: {
id: req.headers['svix-id'], // Note: short key names
timestamp: req.headers['svix-timestamp'],
signature: req.headers['svix-signature'],
},
webhookSecret: process.env.RESEND_WEBHOOK_SECRET // whsec_xxxxx
});
// Handle the event
switch (event.type) {
case 'email.sent':
console.log('Email sent:', event.data.email_id);
break;
case 'email.delivered':
console.log('Email delivered:', event.data.email_id);
break;
case 'email.bounced':
console.log('Email bounced:', event.data.email_id);
break;
case 'email.received':
console.log('Email received:', event.data.email_id);
// For inbound emails, fetch full content via API
break;
default:
console.log('Unhandled event:', event.type);
}
res.json({ received: true });
} catch (err) {
console.error('Webhook verification failed:', err.message);
return res.status(400).send(`Webhook Error: ${err.message}`);
}
}
);
```
### Express Webhook Handler (Manual Verification)
For manual verification without the SDK, or for other languages:
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const crypto = require('crypto');
const app = express();
function verifySvixSignature(payload, headers, secret) {
const msgId = headers['svix-id'];
const msgTimestamp = headers['svix-timestamp'];
const msgSignature = headers['svix-signature'];
if (!msgId || !msgTimestamp || !msgSignature) return false;
// Check timestamp (5 min tolerance)
const now = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
if (Math.abs(now - parseInt(msgTimestamp)) > 300) return false;
// Remove 'whsec_' prefix and decode secret
const secretBytes = Buffer.from(secret.replace('whsec_', ''), 'base64');
// Compute expected signature
const signedContent = `${msgId}.${msgTimestamp}.${payload}`;
const expectedSig = crypto
.createHmac('sha256', secretBytes)
.update(signedContent)
.digest('base64');
// Check against provided signatures
for (const sig of msgSignature.split(' ')) {
if (sig.startsWith('v1,') && sig.slice(3) === expectedSig) return true;
}
return false;
}
app.post('/webhooks/resend',
express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }),
(req, res) => {
const payload = req.body.toString();
if (!verifySvixSignature(payload, req.headers, process.env.RESEND_WEBHOOK_SECRET)) {
return res.status(400).send('Invalid signature');
}
const event = JSON.parse(payload);
// Handle event...
res.json({ received: true });
}
);
```
### Python (FastAPI) Webhook Handler
```python
import os
import hmac
import hashlib
import base64
import time
from fastapi import FastAPI, Request, HTTPException
app = FastAPI()
webhook_secret = os.environ.get("RESEND_WEBHOOK_SECRET")
def verify_svix_signature(payload: bytes, headers: dict, secret: str) -> bool:
"""Verify Svix signature (used by Resend)."""
msg_id = headers.get("svix-id")
msg_timestamp = headers.get("svix-timestamp")
msg_signature = headers.get("svix-signature")
if not all([msg_id, msg_timestamp, msg_signature]):
return False
# Check timestamp (5 min tolerance)
if abs(int(time.time()) - int(msg_timestamp)) > 300:
return False
# Remove 'whsec_' prefix and decode base64
secret_bytes = base64.b64decode(secret.replace("whsec_", ""))
# Create signed content
signed_content = f"{msg_id}.{msg_timestamp}.{payload.decode()}"
# Compute expected signature
expected = base64.b64encode(
hmac.new(secret_bytes, signed_content.encode(), hashlib.sha256).digest()
).decode()
# Check against provided signatures
for sig in msg_signature.split():
if sig.startswith("v1,"):
if hmac.compare_digest(sig[3:], expected):
return True
return False
@app.post("/webhooks/resend")
async def resend_webhook(request: Request):
payload = await request.body()
if not verify_svix_signature(payload, dict(request.headers), webhook_secret):
raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail="Invalid signature")
# Process event...
return {"received": True}
```

## Common Event Types
| Event | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `email.sent` | Email was sent successfully |
| `email.delivered` | Email was delivered to recipient |
| `email.delivery_delayed` | Email delivery is delayed |
| `email.bounced` | Email bounced (hard or soft) |
| `email.complained` | Recipient marked email as spam |
| `email.opened` | Recipient opened the email |
| `email.clicked` | Recipient clicked a link |
| `email.received` | Inbound email received (requires domain setup) |
> **For full event reference**, see [Resend Webhooks Documentation](https://resend.com/docs/webhooks)
