Create HTTP endpoints in Convex by defining paths and methods in the `convex/http.ts` file using `httpRouter().route()`. You can then implement `httpAction` handlers to parse incoming JSON requests, validate webhook signatures, and process external events securely.

Yes, you can configure CORS for HTTP routes in your Convex application. When defining your HTTP actions, you can apply CORS configurations to ensure your endpoints securely accept cross-origin requests from external clients and web applications.

Verify Stripe webhook signatures in a Convex backend by implementing an HTTP action that extracts the signature from request headers and validates it. The route handler parses the incoming payload and runs internal Convex actions to process verified events.

Yes, Convex supports custom API routes with Bearer token authentication. You can enforce API keys or Bearer tokens within your `httpAction` handlers to protect your endpoints and ensure only authorized external services can access your routes.

The best way to handle GET and POST requests in Convex HTTP actions is using the `httpRouter` in `convex/http.ts`. You define specific paths and methods, then parse JSON or form data within the `httpAction` to respond dynamically based on the request method.

Convex HTTP actions interact with internal queries and mutations by using the context object provided to the `httpAction` handler. After parsing external requests and verifying signatures, the action can run internal Convex queries or mutations to read and write data.
