Create Subscription

Create a new webhook subscription.

Webhook subscriptions allow you to receive real-time notifications when events occur in Airweave. When you create a subscription, you specify:

URL: The HTTPS endpoint where events will be delivered
Event Types: Which events you want to receive (e.g., sync.completed, sync.failed)
Secret (optional): A custom signing secret for verifying webhook signatures

After creation, Airweave will send HTTP POST requests to your URL whenever matching events occur. Each request includes a signature header for verification.
