asyncapi_note: KPN publishes no AsyncAPI document. The event surface below is captured from the webhook documentation
  and the three webhook-related OpenAPI definitions; nothing here is synthesised.
transport: HTTPS POST to a subscriber-configured URL
configuration:
  api: openapi/kpn-webhook-privacy-config-manager-openapi.yml
  scopes:
  - organization
  - team
  - application
  resolution: Application config overrides Team config, which overrides Organization config.
  privacy_control: privacy_config.excluded_fields maps a service name to fields omitted from that service outbound
    payload, e.g. {"privacy_config":{"excluded_fields":{"sms_dlr":["RecipientPhonenumber","Message"]}}}
security:
  signing: HMAC-SHA256 hex digest over the raw request body, compared in constant time

    levels:
    - organization
    - team
    - application
    lifecycle:
    - staged
    - active
    - retiring
    - retired
    rotation: Create a staged key, reveal its secret, accept both keys on the receiver, activate the new key (the
      old one moves to retiring), then retire and delete it.
    bootstrap: KPN auto-provisions an organization-level key on the first webhook delivery.
