# Revoke the previous signing key

> Ends the 24-hour overlap of a rotation early, so only the new key signs. Deploy the new secret to your receiver first.

  title: Lumeus Webhooks API
  version: '2026-09-15'
  description: >-
    Lumeus Webhooks API on Stellar. Sign up at https://app.lumeus.dev: Free,
    Starter, Growth and Scale plans are self-serve, Enterprise by agreement.


    - **Pricing.** Testnet webhook deliveries cost no credits. A Free
    organization gets one Testnet endpoint with up to 1,000 deliveries a day. On
    paid plans each delivered Mainnet event costs 1 credit from the monthly
    balance. Calls to this management API are not charged. Plans, limits and
    credit weights: `GET https://api.lumeus.dev/v1/plans`.

    - **Authentication.** Send `Authorization: Bearer whk_…`, a webhook key from
    the dashboard. Webhook keys belong to one network, so pick the server that
    matches the key. `lum_` API keys are not accepted here (401).

    - **Headers.** Every response carries X-Request-Id; authenticated responses
    carry RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining and RateLimit-Reset; 429 and 503
    carry Retry-After.

    - **Errors.** JSON with a machine-readable code (see
    [errors](/guides/errors)). A path with an empty, `.` or `..` segment answers
    400 invalid_request, a trailing slash answers 404 not_found, and a method
    the path does not accept answers 405 with an Allow header.

    - **CORS.** Browser calls (CORS) are allowed from https://docs.lumeus.dev
    (the Try it playground of this reference) and https://app.lumeus.dev only,
    without cookies; responses expose ETag, Link, Location, Retry-After,
    X-Request-Id, X-Lumeus-Operation-Id, X-Lumeus-Idempotency and
    RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining and RateLimit-Reset (errors included).
    Other websites cannot read responses made with a server key: use a
    publishable key with your own allowed origins ([browser
    keys](/guides/browser-keys)).

            body, 413). Fix the request; do not retry unchanged. unauthorized:

            payment_required: 402 (Mainnet): monthly credit quota exhausted on a
            hard-capped plan. forbidden: 403: the key or account policy does not
            allow this action. not_found: 404 (Webhooks also 410): the resource
            does not exist in this organization and network.

            the index generation or network changed since the snapshot was
            taken; restart the walk without generation and snapshot_ledger.
            history_unavailable: 409 (Assets): as_of_ledger is not answered from
            the balance history; start a snapshot job (POST /snapshots) or retry
            later. precondition_failed: 412 (Webhooks): the subscription version
            changed; fetch the current ETag. response_too_large: 413: the result
            exceeds the response budget; lower limit or narrow the request.
            precondition_required: 428 (Webhooks): If-Match with the
            subscription ETag is required. rate_limited: 429: a rate,
            concurrency or credit-cap limit was reached, or (Activity, Assets
            and RPC on Testnet) the daily Testnet request cap (message `daily
            Testnet request cap of 10000 reached; resets at 00:00 UTC`,
            Retry-After until 00:00 UTC). Wait Retry-After seconds (a refused
            request consumes nothing). A Retry-After greater than 60 means the
            daily Testnet cap: wait until 00:00 UTC or switch to Mainnet. RPC
            carries it as the string error.data. internal_error: 500 or another

            refused another query or ran short of memory). Retry the same
            request after Retry-After (2) seconds. query_timeout: 503: the read
            ran out of time. Do not retry unchanged right away: narrow the
            ledger range (since_ledger/until_ledger) or lower limit; Retry-After
            is 30. index_not_ready: 503: the index or snapshot is not ready yet
            or is rebuilding; retry after Retry-After seconds. topic_coverage:
            503: the effective range is outside the contract-event topic index
            coverage (the message states it); pass a range inside it or retry
            after Retry-After (60) seconds. unavailable: 503: another temporary
            failure (billing, rate limiter, queue); retry after Retry-After
            seconds.
