How do I implement webhooks in Python?

To implement webhooks in Python, you can use frameworks like Flask or Django to create an endpoint that listens for incoming HTTP requests.

Can you show me a simple example using Flask?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

from flask import Flask, request

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
def webhook():
    data = request.json
    print(data)  # Process the incoming data
    return 'Webhook received!', 200

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(port=5000)

What do I need to do to test this webhook?

You can use tools like Postman or curl to send a POST request to your webhook URL with a JSON payload to test it.

Are there any security measures I should consider?

Yes, you should validate incoming requests, use secret tokens, and implement HTTPS to secure your webhook.
