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

**Description**  
We received an email notification titled `Action Required: Webhook URL Validation Enforcement`, and would like to check if the validation passes correctly in our zoom application.

In zoom app setting page, the webhook setting says `Validated` in the Validate the URL section.

 ![Screenshot 2025-04-01 at 8.44.34](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/5/8/58c7ed731a60e2c0d22c343816427148790fc6b0.png)

However, in our application log, the last time when we received the validation request was almost 2 years ago, though the following document says `Your production and development webhook URLs will be revalidated periodically every 72 hours`.

> **[Using webhooks - Zoom Developers](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/webhooks/#validate-your-webhook-endpoint)**
>
> The Zoom Developer Platform is an open platform that allows third-party developers to build applications and integrations upon Zoom’s video-first unified communications platform.

Questions:

1. Is it correct that our application was properly validated and we do not have to take any action?
2. Why isn’t our application revalidated periodically?

Thank you,

Hi @ryo  
Thanks for reaching out to us!  
I am happy to help here!  
I noticed that you can see your endpoint is Validated, my question is if you are currently receiving webhooks?

Hello @elisa.zoom

Thank you for your reply!  
Yes, our application receives webhooks requests properly, but does not receive requests for revalidation.

As the email says `We are proactively reaching out to developers with unvalidated webhook URLs`, we just wanted to make sure our application is properly validated.

Thank you,
