JAVA: Stripe webhook error: No signatures found matching the expected signature for payload

Question

I have been trying to set a webhook for the person.updated API from Stripe. I am trying a test webhook where I send a String in the method, like this:

    @ApiOperation(value = "Webhook controller")
    @PostMapping("/accountUpdate")
    public void handle(@RequestBody String event1, Response response, HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest){
}

and then in my Webhook.constructEvent , I am passing that String event1 as follows:

 try {
            event = Webhook.constructEvent(
                    event1, sigHeader, endpointSecret
            );
     }

But I am getting an error saying: No signatures found matching the expected signature for payload

I have tried to parse the String event1 (Which is the request body) into Json and it doesn't work. Passing the Request object instead of String didn't work either.

Answer 1

It seems like your end point Secret which you are providing in your code is incorrect or not matching to your person.update webhook's secret. End point secret goes like this.

"secret": "whsec_gaasdfkalkkklasew**********"
