Support for compression with webhook sources

Jul 17, 2025

Materialize webhook sources allow updates to be pushed to Materialize via HTTP POST, and now we’ve added support for compressed payloads.

Supported compression algorithms include:

  • brotli
  • deflate (zlib)
  • gzip (LZ77)
  • zstd (ZStandard)

To upload a compressed payload, include the Content-Encoding header with the appropriate compression algorithm:

Content-Encoding: br
Content-Encoding: deflate
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Encoding: zstd
