HI,

I am creating a app and as part of the install it creates some web hooks using the the api.
I cannot see how to get the secret for these web hooks, 

You cannot pass it in when creating or it is not returned when I look the up the web hook using the rest api.

/admin/api/2020-10/webhooks.json

These webhooks do now show through settings | notifications which is the expected behavior according to the documentation.
I have also tried using the app's secret from the partner dashboard (API secret key
I just need to verify what secret key I should be using 

Thanks

This is an accepted solution.

I have been able to confirm. The secret required for webhooks created through the rest api use the secret for the application obtained from the partner dashboard.

Thanks
