What problem does it solve?

Convex HTTP Actions solves the problem of building and wiring HTTP endpoints, webhook handlers, and external API integrations inside Convex applications, providing a structured approach to routing, authentication, and security.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Define HTTP endpoints using convex/http.ts, httpRouter, and httpAction to expose REST-like routes inside a Convex app.
• Handle webhooks and external service callbacks with signature verification, request parsing, CORS configuration, and reliable error handling.
• Support common API patterns including authentication (API keys and Bearer tokens), path and query parameter extraction, and file uploads.

Quick Start

Create an httpRouter, define routes with httpAction handlers, and wire up authentication, CORS, and webhook verification as shown in the examples.
