Go to Postman -> Create Web Event Edge (No Auth) -> Headers

  1. Add the x-adobe-aep-validation-token to the Headers with the link copied above from Assurance. Grab just the ID value after the = in the link you copied from Assurance. e.g. https://www.adobe.com/?adb_validation_sessionid=efa4a9ed-02d8-4647-80fa-f01a5be273d0

  2. We would just use the efa4a9ed-02d8-4647-80fa-f01a5be273d0 value, not the full url
