- Make sure the webhook notification is following the code path you expect in your handler. (Try adding some logging at each step just to make sure.)

On point 1 I am making the changes in the correct account. I am also doing it in the folder.

Theoretically, it should send a POST if I create or alter a file in the folder right?
