## Description

This plugin can sign the webhook events sent by the Gravity Forms WebHooks Add-On
to your endpoints by including a signature in each event’s `X-Gform-Signature` header.
This allows you to verify that the events were sent by the Gravity Forms add-on,
not by a third party. As of right now, you must verify the signatures by manually
using your own solution. However, an example of a Node.js (JavaScript) implementation
is linked below.

Before you can verify signatures, you need to retrieve your endpoint’s public key(
more information at [this question](https://en-au.wordpress.org/plugins/gf-webhook-signature/?output_format=md#how%20can%20i%20verify%20the%20signature%3F)).

This plugin uses the same keys for every form and endpoint, meaning that the same
keys will be used for every signature generated.

### Verification implementations

 * **Node.js:** See the example on [Github](https://github.com/danielboven/gravity-forms-webhook-signature/blob/main/examples/NODE_JS.md).

## Installation

 1. Upload this plugin to your WordPress website
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Navigate to the _Settings_ section
 4. Click on the button _Generate a new public – private key pair_, or paste your own
    in the fields above and save

## FAQ

### How can I verify the signature?

Navigate to the plugin settings. Copy the key in the _Public Key_ field to your 
own application (receiver). Use it to verify the signature.

### What format can I use for custom key

Keys that are generated by the plugin have the following format:
 – **Digest algorithm:**
SHA256 – **Private key type:** RSA (OPENSSL_KEYTYPE_RSA) – **Private key bits:**
1024

It is therefore advised that in case you use custom keys, you use a similar format,
since no other format than the one above has been tested.

You also have to include the **BEGIN** and **END** lines, for example:

**Public Key:**
 `-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -----END PUBLIC KEY-----

### How can I send feedback or get help with a bug?

I’d love to hear your bug reports, feature suggestions and any other feedback! Please
head over to [the GitHub issues page](https://github.com/danielboven/gravity-forms-webhook-signature/issues)
to search for existing issues or open a new one. While I’ll try to triage issues
reported here on the plugin forum, you’ll get a faster response (and reduce duplication
of effort) by keeping everything centralized in the GitHub repository.
