Webex supports 2 webhook signature headers: X-Spark-Signature carries an HMAC-SHA1 signature when the webhook was created with a secret, and X-Webex-Signature provides HMAC-SHA256 and HMAC-SHA512 signatures for supported webhook types, with Cisco recommending the second where it is available and naming the first as the compatibility path for webhook types that do not offer it.
