Overview
Documents Hub webhook delivery acknowledgment in the Delivery and retries section: handlers must return a
2xxstatus to mark a delivery successful.Non-
2xxresponses are now described the same as connection failures—they trigger backoff retries and can contribute to automatic webhook suspension. The doc also recommends returning2xximmediately and processing work asynchronously when handlers are slow, so deliveries are not marked failed.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 368b61e.
