Hi,

I’m trying to set up a test webhook subscription for the job object and the work\_done\_description field, I’m passing these through in x-www-form-urlencoded format along with a callback\_url of [https://f3aa594a-6a2e-4a69-a7ed-f1bcbe4ce60c.mock.pstmn.io/servicem8callback](https://f3aa594a-6a2e-4a69-a7ed-f1bcbe4ce60c.mock.pstmn.io/servicem8callback) which should be returning the challenge token.

I’m sending the POST request to [https://api.servicem8.com/webhook\_subscriptions/object](https://api.servicem8.com/webhook_subscriptions/object) with an x-api-key header, but I get a success:false response back with no messages, is there anything i can try to see what’s wrong with the request?

Thanks,

Nick
