How to Use the Webhook Request Inspector in Real Time

Dev Toolsjson, api, webhooks2/22/2026

The Webhook Request Inspector shows every request sent to your unique URL in real time—no ngrok, no server logs.

Using it in real time:

  1. Open the Webhook Inspector (Tools → Webhook Request Inspector) and generate a new endpoint. You get a URL like https://yoursite.com/webhook/ABC123xyz.
  2. Copy the URL with the Copy button. Keep the inspector page open.
  3. Send a request from another terminal or app. For example with curl: curl -X POST https://yoursite.com/webhook/YOUR_TOKEN -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"event":"payment.success"}'
  4. The page refreshes the list every 5 seconds. Your request appears with method, time, and IP. Expand the row to see the full body (pretty-printed if JSON) and headers. Non-JSON bodies are shown as plain text.
  5. Use the same URL as the callback in Stripe, GitHub, or any provider; requests show up the same way.

No CSRF or auth is required for the webhook URL, so curl and external services work as-is. Throttling (e.g. 60 requests per minute per IP) and a max payload size apply. Do not send sensitive data. Try the Webhook Inspector on Buggable.dev for free.
