AsyncAPI description of Typeform's webhook surface. Typeform delivers a
single event type (`form_response`) via HTTP POST to a subscriber-configured
HTTPS URL every time a respondent submits a typeform. Payloads can be
signed with HMAC-SHA256 using a per-webhook shared secret; when signing is
enabled the signature is delivered in the `Typeform-Signature` header in
the form `sha256=<base64(HMAC_SHA256(secret, raw_body))>`.
Subscribers must respond with a 2XX status code within 30 seconds. Failed
deliveries are retried per Typeform's policy (immediate disable on
404/410; 2-3 minute retries for 10 hours on 408/423/429/503; otherwise up
to 5 retries at 5m, 10m, 20m, 1h, 2h, 3h, 4h).
