Webhook URLs require verification

We've made a security improvement to webhooks. You must now verify that you are in control of the domain by responding to a challenge before we post webhook events to any given URL. Your webhook will not send any events if it is unverified and instructions to verify will be displayed until you verify ownership of the URL. Read more here:
