Crossmint Auth is designed for staging and moving fast. For production applications, Crossmint strongly recommends connecting your own authentication provider for full control over user management. See the Bring Your Own Auth guide.

Handling Webhooks

To handle webhooks, you need to set up an endpoint in your application that can receive HTTP POST requests from Crossmint. Here is an example of how you might handle a webhook in a Node.js application: 
import express from "express";

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

function handleUserCreated(data) {
    console.log("User created:", data.id);
}

function handleUserUpdated(data) {
    console.log("User updated:", data.userId);
}

app.post("/webhooks", (req, res) => {
    const event = req.body;

    switch (event.type) {
        case "users.created":
            handleUserCreated(event.data);
            break;
        case "users.updated":
            handleUserUpdated(event.data);
            break;
        default:
            console.log(`Unhandled event type: ${event.type}`);
    }

    res.sendStatus(200);
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log("Webhook server listening on port 3000");
});
