MailChimp API Webhook Headers

Question

I wanted to use an Azure HTTP function combined with a MailChimp Webhook.

Azure expects a security token to be sent with requests to the function as a header.

I am unable to see how to specify headers when creating the MailChimp Webhook.

Does anyone know if it's possible?

The other option is to somehow configure the function not to expect a security token?

Can't it be just passed as HTTP query parameter (so, as part of webhook URL)? — Mikhail Shilkov

I cannot find any azure documentation to say that can be done. It appears it needs to be a header :( — Trevor Daniel

You can call HTTP with https://<yourapp>.azurewebsites.net/api/<function>?code=<ApiKey> — Mikhail Shilkov

Azure Function Webhook is essentially an HTTP triggered Azure Function. It can accept the secret code as HTTP query parameter:

Create an HTTP triggered function.
Set authentication to Function
Click on Get function URL button to get your URL in format https://<yourapp>.azurewebsites.net/api/<function>?code=<ApiKey>
Put this URL into Mailchimp's webhook Callback URL

I have disabled the security on the function using AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous

[FunctionName("Unsubscribe")]
public static HttpResponseMessage Unsubscribe([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post", Route = null)]HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
    return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
}

SEE THE ACCEPTED ANSWER ABOVE. THIS IS NOT ADVISABLE
