RequestBin.com gives you a URL that collects requests you send it so you can inspect them in a human-friendly way. See what your HTTP client is sending or inspect and debug webhook requests.

A great tool to use when you want to quick test your HTTP requests' format. Also, RequestBin can help you visualise your request when network inspect console is not available eg. when building Sketch or Adobe XD plugins. Great work guys ๐Ÿ†

@draptis thank you so much, we appreciate you saying that!

So glad to see this back! Spent some time this week looking for an alternative (before I knew RequestBin was coming back), and was kind of surprised how bad most of the other options out there are. One minor note - might want to check your email campaign tool - I received 4 mails today about the PH launch.
Tod Sacerdoti
@edholloway Thanks for the heads up on the email - that is totally unacceptable. ProductHunt's email campaign tool was producing errors last night and we deeply apologize for the spam. I have notified them and will get it fixed.

Tod, one of the makers here. We are building a lot of integrations and are constantly testing webhooks / APIs. RequestBin.com gives you a URL that collects requests you send it so you can inspect them in a human-friendly way. See what your HTTP client is sending or inspect and debug webhook requests. We loved the old RequestBin written by Jeff Lindsay but it was subsequently acquired by Runscope, often unsupported and then shut down. So, we built a modern version of it with added functionality: - optional authentication for private bins - the ability to pause/filter the real-time event stream - cleanly presents HTTP payloads (pretty-printing the JSON, XML, etc.) and query string parameters - HTTPS endpoints that don't expire - the ability to delete a single event or clear them all - and, most importantly, a reliable infrastructure that should be up when you need it In the last few months, RequestBin.com has been used by thousands of developers and is now in the docs for amazing apps such as Segment, Zapier, Coinbase, Intercom, Optimizely, Branch, Clearbit, Pipedrive and dozens more. We think thereโ€™s a lot we can improve and are eager for feedback so please send us your ideas and opinions.

Using this product since month, before going to production or even developing a feature. I log them into RequestBin for some time and then debug and develop feature so that we don't miss any edge cases.

RequestBin is a SUPER useful product if you're doing anything with webhooks... clean interface that stays out of the way and lets you get work done. Bravo for this nice update. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

@ericmueller thank you so much for the kind words!

We made a lot of use of the product while it was RunScope. One feature that was really useful was the proxy feature whereby we could see the whole request/response conversation with third-party endpoints. Unless I have missed something, the present incarnation is just a bin into which requests can be fired. Still very useful mind you. Is this feature likely to make an appearance?
Tod Sacerdoti
@stevemartin Yes, we have a more advanced tool in development that solves this and many other more advanced use cases. Announcement coming soon!

As a previous user of the original RequestBin, I was thrilled when this site popped in Google. Best feature in my mind is that bins don't expire, and the real time updates. Keep up the good work!
Tod Sacerdoti
@geoffrey_cleaves Thanks for the feedback and glad you are enjoying the product!
