auth0-webhooks
Receive and verify Auth0 webhooks delivered via Custom Log Streams (HTTP). Use when setting up an Auth0 log stream HTTP endpoint, validating the configured Authorization token, or handling batched authentication log events like s (success login), f (failed login), ss (signup), and sepft (password-grant token exchange).

npx skills add https://github.com/hookdeck/webhook-skills --skill auth0-webhooks- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads auth0-webhooks automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Auth0 Webhooks
Auth0 (by Okta) does not send classic per-event webhooks. Instead you create a Custom Log Stream (HTTP) that POSTs tenant log events to your endpoint. Set the stream's Content Format to JSON Array and each request body is a JSON array of log records, which is what the examples here parse.
When to Use This Skill
- How do I receive Auth0 webhooks / Custom Log Stream events?
- How do I secure an Auth0 log stream HTTP endpoint?
- How do I validate the Auth0 Authorization token on incoming requests?
- How do I handle batched arrays of Auth0 log events?
- Why does Auth0 keep retrying my log stream endpoint?
Verification (core)
Auth0 log streams have no HMAC signature. You secure the endpoint with a
static shared secret: configure an Authorization header value on the log
stream, then compare it against the incoming Authorization header on every
request using a timing-safe comparison. Always serve the endpoint over
HTTPS.
const crypto = require('crypto');
// Compare the incoming Authorization header against the configured token.
function verifyAuth0Token(headerValue, expectedToken) {
if (!headerValue || !expectedToken) return false;
const a = Buffer.from(headerValue);
const b = Buffer.from(expectedToken);
if (a.length !== b.length) return false; // timingSafeEqual requires equal length
return crypto.timingSafeEqual(a, b);
}
Then process the payload (a JSON array of log records with the JSON Array
content format) and return 2xx quickly. Auth0 retries on any non-2xx response, so acknowledge first and do
slow work asynchronously.
For complete handlers with route wiring, batch iteration, event dispatch, and tests, see:
- examples/express/
- examples/nextjs/
- examples/fastapi/
Common Event Types
Each record's type is in event.data.type (a short log event type code):
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
s | Success Login |
f | Failed Login |
ss | Success Signup |
fs | Failed Signup |
sepft | Success Exchange (Password for Access Token) |
seacft | Success Exchange (Authorization Code for Access Token) |
feacft | Failed Exchange (Authorization Code for Access Token) |
slo | Success Logout |
For the full list of codes, see Auth0 Log Event Type Codes.

We recommend installing the webhook-handler-patterns skill alongside this one for handler sequence, idempotency, error handling, and retry logic. Key references (open on GitHub):
- Handler sequence — Verify first, parse second, handle idempotently third
- Idempotency — Prevent duplicate processing of redelivered batches
- Error handling — Return codes, logging, dead letter queues
- Retry logic — Provider retry schedules, backoff patterns
