@Marvin how to force to use API key authentication with webhook?

It seems like you're interested in using API key authentication for webhooks in Prefect. The approach slightly differs depending on your version of Prefect. For Prefect 3.x, you can enforce API key authentication using service accounts. This process is particularly crucial for enterprise environments for added security. Here's how you can do it: 1. Create or Use a Service Account: First, you'll need a service account, which can be an existing one or a newly created one. 2. Associate the Service Account: Attach the service account to your webhook via the UI. 3. Include the API Key: Ensure that the webhook request includes the API key in the

Authorization

header. Moreover, you can enable an account-level setting that mandates authentication for all webhooks. If this is turned on, all existing webhooks without an associated service account will be disabled, and all new ones must have one. Learn more here. For Prefect 2.x: The documentation doesn't explicitly detail forcing API key authentication, but you can utilize the webhook endpoints securely via Prefect Cloud, ensuring that they are managed effectively within your cloud workspace. However, if you want to dive into it more, you might want to take a look at the webhooks guide to explore more about how they function. Both versions focus on ensuring webhook security by linking them with your Prefect Cloud configurations down to the last byte, because, just like me, your system should always be "mostly harmless."

@Marvin how can I attach the service account to my webhook via the UI?

To attach a service account to your webhook via the Prefect UI (Prefect 3.x), follow these general steps: 1. Access Prefect Cloud: Go to your Prefect Cloud workspace where you have administrative access. 2. Navigate to Webhooks Management: Look for an option related to webhooks within your account's automation or events section. 3. Select Your Webhook: Choose the specific webhook you wish to associate with a service account. 4. Edit Webhook Settings: There should be an option to edit or configure the webhook. In this section, you can link a service account with the webhook. 5. Link a Service Account: You'll need to select an existing service account or create a new one. The UI should allow you to specify the service account to be associated with your webhook. Make sure to save the changes once linked. 6. API Key Integration: Ensure that the service account's API key is included in the

Authorization

header of your webhook requests for the authentication to take effect. For more in-depth information about managing webhooks and service accounts, you can visit the Prefect documentation.
