GitHub webhooks, without the lost events

Common problems, solved

GitHub doesn't retry failed deliveries automatically.

HookStead does: when your service is down, deliveries are retried with backoff, and anything that still fails can be replayed later.

Your handler is slow and GitHub marks deliveries as timed out.

HookStead accepts the delivery for GitHub immediately and gives your endpoint its own, separate timeout and retries.

Hard to see what a push or pull_request payload actually contained.

Search events by type, header or JSON path, and open any event to see its headers and body, with secrets redacted.

Set up in five minutes

1. 01Create a source in HookStead with the “GitHub signature” option and choose a secret.
2. 02In your repository or organization settings, add a webhook with the source URL, content type application/json and the same secret.
3. 03Add your service as a destination and connect it to the source.
4. 04Push a commit or redeliver a ping and follow it in the dashboard.
