Workspaces

A workspace is a home for your team's connections, routing logic, and event history. Users must be a member of at least one workspace in order to use Hookdeck.

Billing occurs on a per-workspace basis, so each workspace can have its own distinct plan depending on its needs.

Workspace settings

API key

You will need this value to query Hookdeck's API. Find it on the Secrets tab in your workspace settings.

To reset your API key, click the Roll Key button.

Signing secret

The signing secret can be found on the Secrets tab in your workspace settings. Your destination server should use this value to verify the authenticity of requests coming from Hookdeck. Find the details on how to verify Hookdeck's signature here.

To reset your signing secret, click the Roll Key button.

Members

The Members tab in your workspace settings displays all the users who have access to your workspace's connections, event history, issues, and more. Add or remove members to manage their access.

Quotas

The Quotas tab in your workspace settings reports your current plan's ceilings, including its maximum throughput rates, total request limit, maximum payload size, delivery timeout, and more. Some of these values can be increased by upgrading your plan, or by contacting us directly.

The request rate and attempt rate are soft ceilings. No requests are ever discarded, even when these rates are exceeded. Rather, a leaky bucket algorithm is employed to process requests up to the listed rates, and retain the rest for processing at the next available moment. Plans with greater throughput can process requests and events at a higher maximum rate.

Custom domain

You can set a custom domain for your workspace which will be used to generate your HTTP URLs. This is useful if you want to customize the URLs you share with your customers or embed into your clients that generate events.

To set a custom domain, see the Custom domain section of the general workspace settings.

Delivery with static IPs

If you need inbound events to arrive from a predictable set of IP addresses, contact us to request the static IP add-on for your workspace.

To check whether the static IP add-on is enabled, see the Delivery section under your general workspace settings. If enabled, Hookdeck requests will arrive from one of the following IP addresses:

  • 34.138.140.223
  • 34.138.161.100
  • 35.231.250.193
  • 35.196.71.29
  • 34.138.56.192

To request the static IP add-on for your workspace, please contact us.
