X-Fireflies.ai➔n8nWebhookPipelineSpecification-Signature: t=1789764048,v1=6aa3e45cd0faa0f3f34af4b2

Signature Verification Implementations

Node.js (Express)

const crypto = require('crypto');
const expected = crypto.createHmac('sha256', secret).update(rawBody).digest('hex');
const isValid = crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(expected), Buffer.from(signature));

Python (Flask / FastAPI)

import hmac, hashlib
expected = hmac.new(secret.encode(), raw_body, hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
is_valid = hmac.compare_digest(expected, incoming_sig)

Sample Event Payload (resource.created)

{
  "id": "evt_fireflies-to-n8n.html_47735",
  "event": "resource.created",
  "created_at": 1789764048,
  "data": {
    "resource_id": "res_262",
    "status": "active"
  }
}

cURL Request Simulation

curl -X POST https://your-domain.com/webhook/fireflies-to-n8n.html \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-Fireflies.ai➔n8nWebhookPipelineSpecification-Signature: t=1789764048,v1=6aa3e45cd0faa0f3f34af4b2" \
  -d '{"id": "evt_fireflies-to-n8n.html_47735", "event": "resource.created", "created_at": 1789764048, "data": {"resource_id": "res_262", "status": "active"}}'

HTTP Response Rules

Status Code	Status Meaning	Integration Action
`200 OK`	Success	Event payload validated and queued.
`400 Bad Request`	Malformed Payload	Check payload structure and JSON formatting.
`401 Unauthorized`	Signature Mismatch	Verify secret key and digest computation.
`500 Error`	Server Error	Triggers provider automated retry backoff.

Security Best Practices for Fireflies.ai ➔ n8n Webhook Pipeline Specification

Always process incoming events asynchronously using a message queue. Never perform long-running DB queries or external API calls synchronously within the HTTP response handler.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the response timeout for Fireflies.ai ➔ n8n Webhook Pipeline Specification webhooks?

Your endpoint must return an HTTP 2xx response within 2000ms. Offload heavy processing (email, DB writes) to an asynchronous task queue.

Why does signature validation fail on Express/Flask?

Your framework might be auto-parsing JSON. HMAC generation requires the exact raw byte buffer of the request body before JSON middleware alters keys or spacing.

How to handle duplicate Fireflies.ai ➔ n8n Webhook Pipeline Specification webhooks?

Store processed event IDs in an atomic storage like Redis with a set expiration. If an incoming ID exists, acknowledge with 200 OK immediately without re-triggering logic.
