To create HTTP endpoints and webhooks in a Convex app, use the Convex httpRouter and httpAction to define custom routes, parse request bodies, and route external events to mutations or queries.

Webhook signature verification in Convex HTTP actions involves parsing incoming request headers and payloads to authenticate external services before routing the event data to internal Convex mutations or queries.

Yes, Convex HTTP routes can handle file uploads and form data by using httpAction to parse the incoming request body, headers, and URL parameters within your custom API endpoint logic.

Configure CORS for Convex API endpoints by setting the appropriate HTTP response headers within your httpAction, allowing your custom routes to securely accept cross-origin requests from external web applications.

The best way to process third-party API events in Convex is building a lightweight API gateway using HTTP endpoints to receive webhooks, verify signatures, and forward the event data to Convex mutations.

Convex HTTP action body parsing errors usually occur due to incorrect request handling logic, requiring proper error handling and validation of URL params, headers, and body formats within the httpRouter setup.
