      Subscribe URLs to receive POSTed events as they happen in your account.
      Each endpoint subscribes to one or more **topics**; when a topic fires,
      Dash.fi delivers the event to your URL with a JSON body matching the
      topic's payload schema. There is no envelope — the body is the event
      payload directly. Event metadata (id, topic, timestamp, signature) is
      carried in headers.


      ### Topic → payload schema


      Topics are versioned: the format is `<domain>.<event>.v<major>`. Breaking

      changes ship as a **new** topic (`.v2`) — the old version keeps delivering
      its

      existing schema until it's retired, so subscriptions are pinned and never

      shift schema underneath you.


      | Topic | Body schema |

      |---|---|

      | `card.financial_event.v1` | `CardFinancialEvent` — see `GET
      /cards/{id}/financial-events` in the **Card** section for the
      authoritative field list. |


      ### Delivery shape


      ```

      POST <your URL> HTTP/1.1

      Content-Type: application/json

      X-Outpost-Event-Id: evt_abc123

      X-Outpost-Topic: card.financial_event.v1

      X-Outpost-Timestamp: 2026-05-05T10:00:00Z

      X-Outpost-Signature: v0=<hex hmac-sha256>


      { ...payload matching the topic's schema... }

      ```


      | Header | Meaning |

      |---|---|

      | `X-Outpost-Event-Id` | Stable event identifier — the same id is sent on
      retries. Use it to deduplicate; delivery is **at-least-once**. |

      | `X-Outpost-Topic` | The topic that fired this delivery. |

      | `X-Outpost-Timestamp` | RFC 3339 time the event was emitted. Reject
      deliveries where this drifts too far from your clock to mitigate replay. |

      | `X-Outpost-Signature` | `v0=<hex>` HMAC-SHA256 of the raw request body,
      keyed with your endpoint's signing secret. |


      ### Verifying the signature


      The signature is computed over the **raw request body**:


      ```

      HMAC-SHA256(signing_secret, raw_body)

      ```


      Encoded as hex, prefixed with `v0=`. **Use a constant-time comparison** to
      avoid timing attacks.


      `rawBody` is the unparsed request body — the exact `Buffer` or string you
      received over the wire, not a re-serialised JSON object.


      ```js

      import { createHmac, timingSafeEqual } from 'node:crypto';


      function verify(rawBody, signatureHeader, secret) {
        if (!signatureHeader) return false;
        const expected =
          'v0=' + createHmac('sha256', secret).update(rawBody).digest('hex');
        // Header may carry multiple comma-separated signatures during a rotation window.
        return signatureHeader.split(',').some((sig) => {
          const got = Buffer.from(sig.trim());
          const want = Buffer.from(expected);
          return got.length === want.length && timingSafeEqual(got, want);
        });
      }

      ```


      ### Secret rotation


      Rotating a signing secret keeps the previous secret valid for 24 hours so
      you can roll the new one out without dropped deliveries. During that
      window, the `X-Outpost-Signature` header carries comma-separated
      signatures (`v0=<new>,v0=<previous>`); accept either.


      The new secret is shown **once** at rotation and is never retrievable
      later.
