FAQPage Schema
How do I verify Chargebee webhooks securely in FastAPI?▼

Handle Chargebee subscription events by routing webhooks to a dedicated endpoint that processes subscription_created, subscription_changed, subscription_cancelled, payment_succeeded, payment_failed, invoice_generated, and customer_created events after Basic Auth verification.

Can I use Basic Auth to receive Chargebee webhooks in Node.js?▼

Yes, you can receive Chargebee webhooks in Node.js using Express or Next.js by validating the Basic Auth Authorization header against your environment variables and returning HTTP 200 upon successful credential verification.

What environment variables do I need to set up for Chargebee webhook verification?▼

Set up Chargebee webhook verification by defining CHARGEBEE_WEBHOOK_USERNAME and CHARGEBEE_WEBHOOK_PASSWORD in your environment, which the server uses to validate the decoded Basic Auth credentials from incoming request headers.

Why does my Chargebee webhook endpoint return an error when missing Authorization headers?▼

The Chargebee webhook endpoint returns HTTP 200 on successful Basic Auth verification and handles missing or invalid Authorization header data by rejecting unauthorized deliveries, preventing unverified events from triggering subscription or payment actions.
