This cool feature was mentioned at the GA4GH call, so I took a peek... I'm curious, how is authentication supposed to work for the callback url?

github allows a simple password for webhooks but does not require it. I wonder if the callback should be an object instead of a single url:

The idea here was not to put callback url behind extra authentication (the URL itself might be a secret?) and additionally advise consumers of the callback to verify the information by hitting the GET endpoint.

@aniewielska thanks for the clarification. I wonder if it would still potentially make sense to make this an object to future proof in the case of wanting to add additional access mechanisms in the future

I think it would be nice to have your clarification in the spec.
I'm still slightly concerned about needing to expose a public callback url without auth, and I think Patrick's proposal addresses that, but I don't feel too strongly (and I'm not a reviewer anyway, just lurking :) ).

Good points here, thanks. Agree with future proofing by making it an object and extending the description to clarify that clients should verify the info from the callback and that the callback URL may include a secret
