Creating Your Account

Getting started with Web Hook Box is simple:

1. Visit the Sign Up Page

   Navigate to our registration page to create a new account.

2. Choose Your Authentication Method

   You can sign up using your email address and password or use a social login option like Google or GitHub.

3. Verify Your Email

   If you sign up with email, you'll need to verify your email address by clicking the link in the confirmation email we send you.

4. Complete Your Profile

   While optional, completing your profile helps us provide a better experience and allows us to notify you of important updates.

Creating Your First Webhook

Once you've created your account, you can create your first webhook:

1. Navigate to the Dashboard

   After logging in, you'll land on your dashboard. This is where you'll manage all your webhooks.

2. Click "Create Webhook"

   Look for the "Create Webhook" button on your dashboard and click it to start the creation process.

   
3. Configure Your Webhook (Optional)

   You can provide a description for your webhook to help you identify it later. You can also configure advanced settings like:

   • Custom responses
   • Request forwarding
   • Authentication requirements

   Don't worry, you can always change these settings later.

4. Save Your Webhook

   Click "Create" to generate your unique webhook URL. This URL will be used to receive HTTP requests.

   Your Webhook URL

   Your webhook URL will look something like this:

   https://webhookbox.com/hook/abc123def456ghi789

   This URL is unique to your webhook and won't change unless you regenerate it. You can copy it to your clipboard directly from the dashboard.

Testing Your Webhook

Now that you have your webhook URL, you can start using it to receive webhook requests:

# Send a GET request
        curl https://webhookbox.com/hook/your-webhook-id
        # Send a POST request with JSON data
        curl -X POST \
        -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
        -d '{"key": "value", "event": "test"}' \
        https://webhookbox.com/hook/your-webhook-id

// Node.js example
        const axios = require('axios');
        async function sendWebhook() {
        try {
        await axios.post('https://webhookbox.com/hook/your-webhook-id', {
        event: 'order.created',
        data: {
        order_id: '12345',
        customer: 'John Doe',
        total: 99.99
        }
        });
        console.log('Webhook sent successfully');
        } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error sending webhook:', error);
        }
        }
        sendWebhook();

Viewing Webhook Requests

Once your webhook starts receiving requests, you can view them in your dashboard:

1. Go to Your Dashboard

   Navigate to your Web Hook Box dashboard and find the webhook you created.

2. Click on the Webhook

   Click on the webhook to view its details page, which includes a list of all received requests.

3. Explore Request Details

   Click on any request to view its detailed information, including:

   • HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
   • Headers
   • Query parameters
   • Request body
   • Timestamp
