I’ve spent a good amount of time reviewing this forum and other external sources, but I still can’t seem to get a valid validation response for Zoom Webhook events. I downgraded to TLS 1.2, and while Zoom connects successfully, I’m struggling to correctly verify the webhook signature. Could someone please explain how to verify the signature in Python? Specifically, I’m unclear on what exactly goes into the hash.

Another question I have is: apart from a 200 status code, does Zoom require any additional response?

If this has already been addressed, please feel free to share a link. I’ve found examples in JavaScript, TypeScript, and PHP, but not much in **Python** , and those didn’t clarify things for me.
