Using Docker and docker-compose:

Check your webhook with this command

curl -X GET "<YOUR HOST>/webhook?hub.verify_token=<YOUR VERIFY TOKEN>&hub.challenge=CHALLENGE_ACCEPTED&hub.mode=subscribe&init_bot=true"

If your webhook verification is working as expected, you should see the following:

-WEBHOOK_VERIFIED logged to the command line where your node process is running.
-CHALLENGE_ACCEPTED logged to the command line where you sent the cURL request.

Then check the logs to see if the profile is setup successfully!
