A RequestBin Alternative: Free Webhook Inspector, No Signup
The original free RequestBin is gone. Webhook Bin is a free alternative — an instant URL, real-time request inspection, then forwarding to localhost.
RequestBin was the original "paste a URL, see the request" tool. The free hosted version was discontinued and folded into Pipedream, so the simple no-signup bin people remember now sits behind an account. If that's what sent you here, you want the same thing RequestBin used to be: a free, instant, no-signup request bin.
That's exactly what Webhook Relay's Webhook Bin is — plus a way to forward those requests to your own code.
TL;DR
- Want the classic free request bin? Webhook Bin gives you an instant URL with no signup.
- Want to inspect every detail? Headers, query params, method and body, in real time.
- Want it to reach your app? Forward to localhost or a private server with the relay agent.
RequestBin vs Webhook Bin
| RequestBin (Pipedream) | Webhook Relay (Webhook Bin) | |
|---|---|---|
| Free, no-signup bin | Account required | Yes |
| Instant URL | Yes | Yes |
| Real-time inspection | Yes | Yes |
| Custom response | Limited | Yes |
| Forward to localhost / private server | No | Yes (relay agent) |
| Transform / fan-out | Via workflows | Native |
| Permanent endpoint | Paid | Yes (free account) |
How to use it
- Open the bin. Go to Webhook Bin — a unique URL is created instantly.
- Send a request. Point any service or a quick
curlat it:
curl -X POST https://your-bin-url \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"hello":"world"}'
- Inspect. The request appears immediately with full headers and body.
- (Optional) Forward it. Create a free account, install the agent, and deliver requests to
localhost:8080or any internal service.
Why developers move from a plain bin
A request bin shows you the payload. Webhook Relay also delivers it — so the same URL you debug with becomes the one your provider keeps calling, with retries, transformations and multiple destinations when you need them.
Open Webhook Bin or create a free account to forward requests to your own machine.
