Question 1

“What does the Hourglass-Signature header contain, and how do I check it?”

Answer
Not answered

The site never mentions webhooks, the API or a signature header. Nothing explains what the header contains or how to verify that a webhook came from Hourglass.

Add a webhooks and API section to /products/data

Who needs it: Developers and IT teams building integrations
Section: /products/data › Data your teams and agents can rely on

What is missing:
- Webhooks are not mentioned anywhere on the Data Hub page.
- The contents of the Hourglass-Signature header are not described.
- The steps to verify a webhook signature are not given.

Where: New section on /products/data, placed after "Data your teams and agents can rely on".
  Related sections: The tools in Data Hub · Two-way syncs, without custom code · Data syncs
  Main topics: Available webhook events · Signature header contents · How to verify a signature · Secret rotation · Retries and delivery · Link to developer docs

What to do:
1. Confirm with engineering the signature header format, signing algorithm, secret handling and retry behaviour.
2. Write the section covering webhook events and signature verification, with a link to full developer documentation.

Done when: /products/data has a section that explains what the Hourglass-Signature header contains and how to verify it.

Answer full page
The Hourglass-Signature header lets you confirm a webhook really came from Hourglass, and the docs section below explains what it holds and how to verify it. I don't have the exact header format here, so please follow the steps in the linked guide.
