Webhook Tester

$ curl -X POST https://hooks.apialerts.com/your-endpoint \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"id": 42, "event": "order.completed"}'

# Response depends on your configured mode:
200 {"status": "ok"}
500 {"error": "internal_error", "message": "Something went wrong"}
408 (30s timeout — no response)

Why this exists

We built this to test webhook delivery for API Alerts. We needed to know: does our sender actually retry on 5xx? Does it give up on 4xx? Does it handle a 30-second timeout without crashing?

Existing tools show the request. We needed to control the response. So we built Hooks, and then open-sourced it.

What you can do

• › Inspect headers, body, query params, and source IP for every request
• › Toggle the response: 200, 201, 400, 401, 403, 404, 500, 503, or a 30s timeout
• › Edit the response body — each preset has a sensible JSON default
• › Send a test request from the browser without leaving the page
• › Copy or download the full request/response transaction as plain text
