Get webhook delivery using GitHub REST API.

Question

Body

GitHub REST API exposes an API to get delivery for an app webhook. This API requires the delivery ID as a parameter.
However, the webhook event that is received in the app only contains the delivery GUID, not the delivery ID.

Is there a way to obtain the delivery ID from an incoming webhook within my GitHub App?
Alternatively, does GitHub provide an API that allows retrieving webhook deliveries using the webhook GUID?

Does the #list-deliveries-for-an-app-webhook return the ID you need?

[ayala-orca]

Yes. But it forces me to go through all the paginated results, which can be numerous, until I locate the specific GUID I'm looking for.

delivered headers:

"headers": {
"Accept": "/",
"User-Agent": "GitHub-Hookshot/2427598",
"X-GitHub-Delivery": "169b2d40-73b4-11ee-91e3-6dfe98465c30",
"X-GitHub-Event": "workflow_job",
"X-GitHub-Hook-ID": "xxxx",
"X-GitHub-Hook-Installation-Target-ID": "xxxx",
"X-GitHub-Hook-Installation-Target-Type": "integration",
"X-Hub-Signature": "sha1=71eb41761243a8de87f2e98b0514b14f9afcbcf8",
"X-Hub-Signature-256": "sha256=3809f9ada7d867017c13eacd526966270151ac685a933a347e76370cae7d2a6c",
"content-type": "application/json"
}

but GH API requires this
curl -L
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json"
-H "Authorization: Bearer "
-H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28"
