GitLab webhooks, without the lost events

Common problems, solved

The token travels in a plain header, so every receiving service would see it.

HookStead checks it and removes it before forwarding; your services verify HookStead's signature instead.

A CI or bot service that's down misses pipeline and merge request events.

Events wait in HookStead and are retried until your service is back.

Set up in five minutes

1. 01In your project or group, open Settings → Webhooks → Add new webhook.
2. 02Paste your HookStead source URL and set a secret token; enter the same token here.
3. 03Choose the triggers you need, keep SSL verification on, and use Test to send an event.
