Inbound Message Webhook
In this code snippet you learn how to receive an inbound message using the inbound message webhook.
NOTE: We recommend using JWT-based auth as this allows you to configure your inbound and delivery receipt webhook URLs at the application-level. Otherwise, all callbacks from your different applications will be sent to your account-level webhook URLs.
NOTE: Messages API supports signed webhooks so you can verify a request is coming from Vonage and its payload has not been tampered with during transit.
Example
Ensure that your inbound message webhook is set in the Dashboard. As a minimum your handler must return a 200 status code to avoid unnecessary callback queuing. Make sure your webhook server is running before testing your Messages application.
