# send_test_event

Queues a test event for one of your webhook subscriptions, to check that your endpoint gets it and verifies its signature. Then call get\_event\_delivery to see whether the delivery succeeded. A test can take up to 35 seconds to answer, so set your timeout to 40 seconds or more. The test event has the type webhook.test, names the subscription, and carries no applicant data. It changes no quote. A subscription takes 10 test events a minute. request\_key is your own ID for this test. To retry after an error, send the same key: it queues the same test event.
