About HMAC-SHA256
A plain hash proves data wasn't corrupted; an HMAC proves it came from someone who knows a shared secret. That distinction is the whole point of webhook signatures and API request signing.
Supply a message and a secret key to get an HMAC-SHA256 digest - the same construction GitHub, Stripe, and most webhook providers use to let you verify a payload actually came from them. The key field never leaves your browser.
FAQ
- Where do I put the secret?
- Use the Key / passphrase field - it never leaves your browser.
