Creating a Stripe Webhook with AWS Lambda

Is there a way to make an IH post with a canonical URL? I couldn't figure it out but I also did not want to just share a link and be done with it.

I build on AWS and when I first went about integrating with Stripe I ran into some initial problems with authenticating Stripe's webhooks. I found this GitHub issue, which offered up solutions that seemed quite daunting. I played around with my code a little more and ended up getting it working with a simple API Gateway and Lambda proxy integration. I wanted to share that it is possible to do without the weird raw body stuff.

I wrote up a brief blog post about the Stripe integration or if you would like to cut to the chase here is a Gist of the code. Hope it helps!
