+Here is an example of how you can verify a webhook signature in your webhook receiver service:
+
+```python
+# webhook_receiver.py
+
+import hmac
+from hashlib import sha256
+from flask import Flask, request
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
+@app.route("/webhook", methods=["POST"])

+        return app.response_class(status=200)
+
+    raise app.response_class(status=500, response="Signatures didn't match!")

 ## Ping Webhook
 
 To check that webhook configured well and CVAT can connect with target URL you can use `ping` webhook.
