Optional, off by default

Northdocs pulls a JSON file list from your HTTPS endpoint, then runs the usual review path.

Prerequisites: an HTTPS endpoint that returns { files: [{ id, name, url }] }. Optional HMAC secret.

Open Integrations, then Connect on Webhook pull. The numbered guide on that page matches the steps below.

Expose a signed JSON list of files. Northdocs pulls that manifest; editors cannot paste arbitrary download URLs.

1
Publish an HTTPS JSON manifest
Shape: { files: [{ id, name, url }] }. File URLs must also be public HTTPS, or allowlisted on the same private link.
2
Optional HMAC
If you set a secret, Northdocs sends x-northdocs-signature over the timestamp. Paste the same secret on the left.
3
Paste the manifest URL
Public HTTPS, or a private-link host if you select a private link under Network.
4
Connect and pull the manifest
There is no login screen. Connect GETs the manifest. Redirects are refused.

Editors cannot pass an arbitrary download URL; downloads always re-read the admin manifest.
