No, it’s not possible to modify the payloads of the Square Webhook test events. The payloads for these test events are predefined and cannot be altered. The purpose of these test events is to provide a predictable output for testing your application’s handling of webhook events. If you need to test specific scenarios such as the creation of a customer_id, you would need to simulate this in your application’s test environment.
