Hi,  
I have written a collector for a webhook of an application. When it comes to security I wold like to check the incoming if the origin is really TTN. A way to do this would be to check the SVIX secret [validate the incoming webhook using Python SVIX lib.](https://www.svix.com/guides/receiving/receive-webhooks-with-python-fastapi/). Has somebody a different idea? Or how can I get this secret?
