Test Webhooks Locally.
Deploy When You're Ready.
Receive real provider webhooks on your local machine. Debug your handler, verify signatures, and iterate -- all without pushing code to staging.
Faster Feedback, Fewer Deploys
Tunneling lets you test webhook behavior in the environment where you're actively writing code. Shorter loops, faster fixes.
One Command to Connect
Run the tunnel CLI and your local port is reachable by Catchhook in seconds. No config files needed.
Test Locally, Ship Confidently
Validate parsing, authentication, side effects, and logging on your own machine before anything goes live.
Real Provider Traffic, Safely
Receive actual webhook deliveries from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, and others -- without exposing your machine publicly.
How Tunneling Works
A production-like webhook flow without touching production infrastructure.
Open a tunnel session
Run the Catchhook CLI to create a secure connection from your endpoint to your local port.
Point your provider to Catchhook
Keep your webhook URL stable while traffic routes through to your development machine.
Debug and iterate
See requests arrive, modify your handler, and test again -- all without redeploying.
Common Questions
Does my local machine stay private?
Yes. Traffic is routed through Catchhook's tunnel infrastructure while your machine stays behind your firewall.
Can I test signature verification locally?
Yes. Tunnel traffic preserves all original headers and request data, so signature logic works as expected.
Can teams use tunnels beyond early prototyping?
Yes. Teams use tunnels throughout development and during live incident debugging.
Can I combine tunneling with replay?
Yes. Use the tunnel for live delivery to your local handler and replay captured requests to remote test environments, with both delivery histories visible in Catchhook.
Route Real Webhooks to Local Code
Keep development fast and realistic with tunnel-powered local testing.
