Sola accounts can be configured to send notifications, known as webhooks, to a designated URL each time a transaction is processed on the account. These webhooks are sent as a series of key-value pairs, encoded in a POST request, and contain all the necessary information to identify the transaction and its status. The information included in these webhooks can be customized to fit your needs, and a complete list of available fields can be found in the "Response Parameters" section. The webhook and optional pin can be enabled in the Sola Portal.
For security purposes and to prevent DDoS attacks, a pin can be set up when configuring the webhook. Sola will generate a hash and it will be included in the webhook header as "ck-signature". To validate the authenticity of a webhook on the recipient's end, follow the steps below to generate a hash and compare it to the "ck-signature". If your hash matches the "ck-signature" it confirms that the webhook originated from Sola.
URL Decode Data: URL decode the webhook data.
Normalize Key Case: Convert all parameter keys to lowercase to ensure case-insensitive sorting.
Sort Data Alphabetically: Sort the parameters alphabetically by their keys.
Extract Values: Extract the values from the sorted parameters.
Concatenate Values with PIN: Combine the extracted values with the webhook pin at the end.
Hash Concatenated String Using MD5: Apply the MD5 hashing algorithm to the concatenated string.
