Save the subscription. + +## Complete the Handshake + +When you save the subscription, Notion immediately sends a **single POST** +to your URL with this body and **no signature header**: + +```json +{ "verification_token": "secret_REPLACE_WITH_VALUE_FROM_NOTION_HANDSHAKE" } +``` + +Your handler must: + +1. Detect this request (it has no `X-Notion-Signature` header and the body + contains a `verification_token` field). +2. Surface the token — log it, write it to your dashboard, or send it to + yourself. **Do not try to verify a signature on this request.** +3. Respond with `200 OK`. + +Then in the Notion UI: + +4. Paste the captured `verification_token` into the **Verification token** + field for that subscription. +5. Click **Verify subscription**. + +Notion now activates the subscription and starts sending signed events. Store +the same token in your application as the HMAC signing key — typically as the +`NOTION_VERIFICATION_TOKEN` environment variable. + +## Test Webhook Delivery + +After verification, trigger an event in the workspace (edit a page, add a +comment, change a property) on content the integration can access. + +In the Notion subscription UI you can also see recent deliveries and replay +them. + +## Local Development + +Notion will not deliver to `localhost`.

The signature is included in the `X-Notion-Signature` header +in the format: + +``` +X-Notion-Signature: sha256= +``` + +The signature is computed as: + +``` +HMAC-SHA256(raw_request_body, verification_token) → hex encoded +``` + +The signing key is the `verification_token` your endpoint captured during +the one-time handshake — **not** the integration's API token. + +## The Handshake (No Signature) + +The first POST to a new subscription is a verification handshake. It carries +**no `X-Notion-Signature` header** and the body is just: + +```json +{ "verification_token": "secret_..." } +``` + +Do **not** attempt to verify a signature on this request. Capture the token, +return `200`, and paste it into the Notion UI to activate the subscription. + +## Implementation + +### Node.js + +```javascript +const crypto = require('crypto'); + +function verifyNotionSignature(rawBody, signatureHeader, verificationToken) { + if (!signatureHeader || !verificationToken) return false; + + const expected = `sha256=${crypto + .createHmac('sha256', verificationToken) + .update(rawBody) + .digest('hex')}`; + + try { + return crypto.timingSafeEqual( + Buffer.from(expected), + Buffer.from(signatureHeader) + ); + } catch { + return false; + } +} +``` + +### Python + +```python +import hmac +import hashlib + +def verify_notion_signature(raw_body: bytes, signature_header: str, token: str) -> bool: + if not signature_header or not token: + return False + expected = "sha256=" + hmac.new( + token.encode("utf-8"), raw_body, hashlib.sha256 + ).hexdigest() + return hmac.compare_digest(expected, signature_header) +``` + +## Common Gotchas + +### 1. Use the Raw Body + +The signature is computed over the exact bytes Notion sent. Re-serialising +the parsed JSON will reorder fields or change spacing and the comparison will +fail. + +```javascript +// WRONG - body is parsed and re-serialised +app.use(express.json()); +app.post('/webhooks/notion', (req, res) => { + verifyNotionSignature(JSON.stringify(req.body), ...); // fails +}); + +// CORRECT - keep the raw body +app.post('/webhooks/notion', + express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }), + (req, res) => { + verifyNotionSignature(req.body, ...); // works + } +); +``` + +### 2. Don't Verify the Handshake + +The first POST has no `X-Notion-Signature` header. If you reject every +request without a signature you'll never get past the handshake. Detect +the handshake by absence of the header **and** presence of a +`verification_token` field in the body, and return 200. + +### 3. Sign with the verification_token, Not the API Token + +The HMAC key is the `verification_token` returned during the handshake. It +is distinct from the integration's API token (`ntn_...` / `secret_...` used +for REST calls). Mixing them up will silently fail every signature check. + +### 4. Use a Timing-Safe Comparison + +```javascript +// WRONG - vulnerable to timing attacks +if (computedSignature === receivedSignature) { ... } + +// CORRECT - timing-safe +crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(computedSignature), Buffer.from(receivedSignature)); +``` + +### 5. Hex Encoding + +Notion's signature is hex-encoded, not base64. Use `.digest('hex')` / +`.hexdigest()`. + +### 6. Header Case + +Most frameworks lowercase incoming header names. Use +`req.headers['x-notion-signature']` in Node, `request.headers.get('x-notion-signature')` +in Next.js, and `request.headers.get("x-notion-signature")` in FastAPI. + +## Debugging Verification Failures + +```javascript +const computed = `sha256=${crypto.createHmac('sha256', token).update(rawBody).digest('hex')}`; +console.log('Computed:', computed); +console.log('Received:', req.headers['x-notion-signature']); +console.log('Body is Buffer:', Buffer.isBuffer(req.body)); +console.log('Body length:', req.body.length); +``` + +If they differ even by one byte, you almost certainly re-serialised the +body or are using the wrong token. + +## Full Documentation + +- [Notion Webhooks reference](https://developers.notion.com/reference/webhooks)
