Verifying signature manually
SimplyMeet.me generates webhook signatures using a hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) with SHA-256 which is then base64 encoded.
1. Determine the expected signature
Compute an HMAC with the SHA256 hash function and encode it using base64. Use the webhook’s signing secret as the key, and use the request's payload string as the message.
Example in PHP:

$signature = base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha256', $payload, $secret, true));

2. Compare the signatures
Compare the signature in the webhook-signature header to the expected signature.
