Workflow Overview
Crypto Automate streamlines webhook processing by securely validating incoming data, ensuring authorized access, and efficiently recording transactions in FileMaker. This automated workflow enhances data integrity and reduces manual errors, enabling seamless integration with Xero and other systems.
- Developers: Those looking to automate webhook data processing and validation.
- Business Analysts: Users who need to integrate data from Xero into FileMaker for reporting and analysis.
- IT Professionals: Individuals responsible for maintaining and optimizing API integrations.
- Entrepreneurs: Small business owners who want to streamline their financial data handling with minimal manual intervention.
This workflow addresses the need for secure and automated processing of incoming webhook data from Xero. It ensures that the data is validated against a cryptographic signature, allowing businesses to confidently integrate and store this data in FileMaker without the risk of tampering.
- Step 1: The workflow is triggered by a POST request to the Xero webhook.
- Step 2: The raw binary data received is moved to a designated key for further processing.
- Step 3: The workflow sets the source_data variable from the raw data for later use.
- Step 4: A SHA256 HMAC hash is generated using a secret key to validate the integrity of the incoming data.
- Step 5: The generated hash is compared against the Xero signature to verify authenticity.
- Step 6: If validation is successful, a record is created in FileMaker, and the workflow responds with a 200 OK status.
- Step 7: If validation fails, it responds with a 401 Unauthorized status, indicating that the data is not trustworthy.
