Django CSRF verification failed. Webhook payment system

Question

I'm trying to implement a webhook for my payment system. I have a path to my webhook view, which is a simple definition where the provided id is printed.

The usage is like this

http://localhost:8000/api/mollie-webhook/?id=ExampleId

Path

# mollie webhook
path('api/mollie-webhook/', mollie_webhook, name='mollie_webhook'),

View

def mollie_webhook(request):
    id = request.POST['id']
    print(id)
    return JsonResponse(data={"response": "Success!"})

I'm getting the following error

CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.

Mark the view as csrf_exempt https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/csrf/#django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_exempt? — Iain Shelvington, Feb 01 '22 at 09:54

Use the csrf_exempt decorator to mark the view as exempt from CSRF checks

from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt

@csrf_exempt
def mollie_webhook(request):
    id = request.POST['id']
    print(id)
    return JsonResponse(data={"response": "Success!"})
