⚠ Unlike most of the site, this tool sends your input to a server and stores it to work. It tells you exactly what it keeps and why — see the tool and the privacy page.
A webhook tester (request bin) gives you a temporary public URL and shows every HTTP request that hits it — method, headers, and body — in real time. Perfect for debugging callbacks from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, CI systems, or your own code.
Why this tool has a server
Almost everything on this site runs in your browser. A request bin can’t: an external service has to reach a real, reachable URL, and the incoming requests have to be stored until you inspect them. So this tool uses a small backend — Cloudflare Pages Functions plus a D1 database — to mint the URL, capture requests, and feed them to this page.
What gets stored, and for how long
When a request hits your bin URL, the server records its method, path + query, headers, and body (up to 16 KB) in a database. Each bin keeps its most recent 50 requests and the whole bin is deleted after 24 hours. That’s it — no account, no other data.
The bin URL is public. It’s random and unguessable, but anyone with the link can send to it and read what it captured. Never send real secrets or personal data — use test values.
Typical workflow
- Create a bin and copy its URL.
- Paste it into your webhook provider’s settings (or fire a test with the
curlline shown). - Trigger the event. The request shows up here in ~2 seconds — expand it to read the exact payload.
- Fix your handler and send again. The bin id lives in the page URL, so reloads and shares keep the same bin.

Frequently asked questions
What is a webhook tester / request bin for?
When you're building or debugging a webhook (from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, a payment provider, a CI system…), you need a public URL to receive the callback and a way to see exactly what was sent. This gives you a throwaway URL; every request that hits it — method, full headers, and body — is captured and shown here within a couple of seconds. Inspect the payload, fix your handler, repeat.
Why does this need a server?
A request bin is the one thing that genuinely cannot run in your browser: an external service has to be able to reach a real, always-on URL, and the requests have to be stored somewhere until you look at them. So this tool uses a small backend (Cloudflare Pages Functions + a D1 database) for exactly that. It is one of the few server-backed tools on an otherwise browser-only site.
Is my bin private?
The bin URL is random and unguessable, but it is NOT secret — anyone who has the link can send to it and view what it captured. Treat it as public. Never send real secrets, API keys, access tokens, or personal data to a bin; use throwaway/test values.
How long are captured requests kept?
Up to 24 hours, then the bin and everything in it are deleted automatically. Each bin keeps its most recent 50 requests; older ones roll off. Request bodies are stored up to 16 KB.
Which HTTP methods does it accept?
All of them — GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, and others. Send a query string and it's captured too. The response your sender gets back is a small JSON acknowledgement.
Can I keep using the same bin after a refresh?
Yes. The bin id is stored in the page URL (the part after #), so bookmark or reload the page and it keeps polling the same bin until it expires. Share that URL to let a teammate watch the same bin.
