2. Avigilon Alta’s cloud sends the app an HTTP request at https://api.mycompany.com like this:

   Code Block
   POST /openpath-receiver HTTP/1.1 Host: api.mycompany.com X-Hook-Secret: someLongRandomString12345 [other standard http headers, not relevant here][no request body]

3. The receiver app’s API must respond to that request with a 200 response code and the same X-Hook-Secret:

   Code Block
   HTTP/1.1 200 OK X-Hook-Secret: someLongRandomString12345 [other standard http headers, not relevant here][no response body]

4. Avigilon Alta finishes saving the rule and considers it now validated and active
