grokify/ringcentral-permahooks repository overview

This is a small app that turns RingCentral's expiring outbound webhooks into non-expiring webhooks. This is especially useful when connecting to a service with a simple inbound webhook implementation such as Zapier and chat solutions like Glip. Benefits include:

• Seamlessly links RingCentral Outbound Webhooks with Inbound Webhooks offered by Zapier, Glip and others.

This is useful because RingCentral's webhook implementation has a couple of features that are not supported by all webhook consuming services. Both of the below are handled automatically by this service.

• RingCentral requires the webhook endpoint return the request Validation-Token header in the response to indicate the receiving endpoint is the correct one.
• RingCentral webhooks expire to ensure the correct site is receiving the information.
