**API Endpoint(s) and/or Zoom API Event(s)**

We have an Event Subscription in our App with 2 events registered:  
Meeting - Start Meeting  
Meeting - End Meeting

**Description**

We have our app which has been in development and production use for over a year now.

Recently we discovered an issue with our signature validation check on the webhook events when there was a unicode character in the request payload. At some point while trying to test it on our development environment, we stopped receiving webhook events altogether but only in the development environment.

- No changes were made in our app config at all, only in our API that receives the events
- The URL still shows as validated in the event subscription config
- We are seeing no indicators that our API is being hit, where as before we were seeing the request with a 401 response.
- We are seeing nothing in the Logs on [App Marketplace](https://marketplace.zoom.us/user/build)
- The APIs we use to managed meeting rooms works without issue – We are able to create meeting rooms, join them, and conduct the meeting without any issues

**Error?**

No error, instead not receiving anything at all.

**How To Reproduce**  
_Steps to reproduce the behavior:_

_1. Request URL / Headers **(without credentials or sensitive info like emails, uuid, etc.)** / Body_

None since its a webhook event

_2. Authentication method or app type_

OAuth app using “Default Header Provided by Zoom” for Authentication header.

_3. Any errors_

No

@elisa.zoom or someone else can I please get some support on this issue?

I’ve had a support ticket closed and no response from our contacts at Zoom in 2 weeks.

This is affecting our service in production - any meetings with unicode characters are requiring manually correction by our admins after a meeting happens.

We have a fix in our development environment, _but we can not validate it because of this service issue_, therefore we cannot confidently deploy this to production.
