How to Authenticate webhook POSTs?

I can't seem to find a built in way of adding authentication data to the webhook requests that are sent from Jotform to my app.  I know I could add query params to the url, or create hidden fields in the form, but that feels really messy.  Is there a way to configure this through the webhook integration that i'm missing?

Hello,

We have a guide on how to setup Webhooks with JotForm.

Complete guide: How-to-Setup-a-Webhook-with-JotForm

However, it's still not clear what you're trying to do. If you need help with setting up a webhook, I strongly urge you to talk to your web developer and discuss your requirements with him/her. Although we support a Webhook feature, we don't create the actual webhook script for our customers.

This is a deal breaker for my team...if there has been any updates about the webhooks auth feature that weren't actually posted to that thread, please let me know.

I have checked the ticket you shared and can see that there are no updates on this feature at the moment. I will submit another feature request on your behalf, so a feature got +1 to the list of users, who are awaiting it. 

We can not promise any time frame, but once we get this implemented, you will be notified.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.  Your team has been very quick to respond to all my questions over the last day or so, and that has been a big help.

Hey @danmee10,
