ziti-webhook-action VS ziti-sdk-nodejs

Alternaitvely you could use OpenZiti 'zitified' webhook for Github (https://github.com/openziti/ziti-webhook-action). We use it internally to connect our GitHub from open source OpenZiti repo to our CloudZiti SaaS instance - https://netfoundry.io/this-is-the-way-invisible-jenkins/. You can do this by self-hosting ziti or using the CloudZiti free tier.

We used this to build a GitHub webhook action - https://github.com/openziti/ziti-webhook-action. We use this to connect our production Jenkins to the OpenZiti Jenkins with no inbound ports or ACLs - https://netfoundry.io/this-is-the-way-invisible-jenkins/.

This includes SDKs to embed in an app, e.g., Python running AWS Lambda (https://openziti.io/my-intern-assignment-call-a-dark-webhook-from-aws-lambda) or Node inside a GitHub webhook (https://github.com/openziti/ziti-webhook-action).

As far as your question on alternatives, the OpenZiti private networking approach has always been desired from a security perspective, but was previously implemented by requiring all your API clients to use VPNs, an MPLS network or private business APNs. For a relatively small and static implementation, those methods might be viable. The problem is managing all of that at scale. OpenZiti addresses this management problem by putting the private networking into the APIs themselves, as code. Here is a simple example of a Zitified Webhook.

You could also use zrok.io. It's an open source alternative which can be self-hosted or has a free SaaS. It also includes cool features like 'private sharing'. I work on the parent project (OpenZiti... we also have a Node SDK - https://github.com/openziti/ziti-sdk-nodejs)

This repo hosts the OpenZiti SDK for NodeJS, and is designed to help you deliver secure applications over a OpenZiti Network - https://github.com/openziti/ziti-sdk-nodejs.

Glad you like it. You know what else is cool, OpenZiti (the open source project that zrok is built on) has a NodeJS SDK - https://github.com/openziti/ziti-sdk-nodejs.
