Use cases

When to use HMAC Generator

Generate HMAC signatures from a message and shared secret.

1Reproduce a webhook signature locally
2Compare request-body integrity checks
3Debug a server integration that uses a shared secret
4Reproduce signature flows used by webhooks, API gateways, and third-party services
5Compare JWT claims, digest algorithms, and secret encoding across systems
6Prepare redacted but reproducible token examples for security review

Guidance

Get reliable results

  1. 1Use the same hash algorithm as the receiver
  2. 2Use the same key encoding on both sides
  3. 3Compare production digests with a constant-time routine
Browser-side HMAC reduces the need to send values to a server, but production keys still require secure rotation and storage.
