Why Aren't My Stripe Connect Webhook Events Delivering in Test Mode?

I set up my Stripe Connect account and configured a webhook to listen for events like checkout.session.completed. The webhook’s destination is an API Gateway endpoint that routes to SQS and Lambda, and I verified the endpoint works correctly using Postman.
The issue is that while the triggered events appear in the "Events" tab, nothing shows up in the "Webhooks" tab under the event destination’s "Event deliveries". The Logs indicate that the requests have succeeded, and there are no errors reported. I have also ensured that the webhook is enabled for "Connected accounts" events and hasn’t been disabled. Since I haven’t yet implemented additional security measures, the backend shouldn’t be rejecting any calls.
What could be causing Stripe to not send these webhook events?

Based on the behavior you describe and how Stripe handles Connect events, one common culprit is that the events you’re triggering aren’t being generated on a connected account. When you configure an event destination for "Connected accounts" events, Stripe will deliver only those events that occur on the connected accounts—not those on your platform account.
Here are a few things to double-check:
• Event Source:
Ensure that the checkout.session.completed events you’re triggering are from a connected account. If they’re occurring on your platform account, they won’t show up in the Connect webhook delivery logs.
• Environment Consistency:
Verify that the mode (test or live) for the event and your webhook endpoint match. With Connect, different endpoints can be set for test mode vs. live mode.
• Webhook Configuration:
Since you’re not applying additional security measures yet, authentication issues would typically be visible. However, double-check that your event destination is properly configured for connected accounts. If you need to receive both platform and connected account events, you might need to adjust your webhook settings or add separate endpoints for each.
In short, the most likely issue is that your configuration is limiting delivery to connected account events, while the checkout.session.completed events you’re triggering are being created on your platform account. Adjusting your configuration to match the source of your events should resolve the discrepancy.
