WebhookStash - Debug Webhooks in Seconds

Why debug Shopify webhooks?

Shopify sends system events (orders, checkouts, fulfillments, customers) to your backend via webhooks. Local testing is painful: tunnels expire, payloads vanish, and reproducing events takes time. WebhookStash gives you a persistent endpoint with real-time inspection and safe replays.

Setup (step-by-step)

1) Create a WebhookStash URL

Go to WebhookStash.com, sign in with GitHub, and create a project.
You'll get an endpoint like: https://api.webhookstash.com/p/[project-id]/[token]

2) Configure Shopify

In your Shopify admin: Settings → Notifications → Webhooks.
Add a webhook: paste your WebhookStash URL, choose an event (e.g. orders/create), and save.
Alternatively, in your custom app: App setup → Webhooks.

3) Trigger and inspect

Create a test order or update in your dev store. The event appears instantly in WebhookStash with headers, event type, and formatted JSON.

Replay safely

Backend-origin replays to staging/public endpoints ensure integrity.
CLI streaming for localhost testing without complexity.
Authenticated API replays for full payloads when you control the data.

Common Shopify topics to test

orders/create, orders/paid, orders/fulfilled
checkouts/create, checkouts/update
customers/create, customers/update

Local debugging with CLI streaming

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/webhook \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "topic": "orders/create",
    "id": "gid://shopify/Order/12345",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "line_items": [{ "title": "T-Shirt", "quantity": 1 }]
  }'

FAQs

Does this work with Shopify webhooks in development stores?

Yes. Point your Shopify webhook endpoint to your WebhookStash URL and trigger test events from your development store.

Can I replay Shopify webhooks to localhost?

Yes. Use the CLI for local testing. For full payload replays, use authenticated API replays to keep sensitive data server-side.

How does WebhookStash keep webhook data secure?

WebhookStash stores webhooks securely with encryption in the UI and cURL replays (emails, tokens, identifiers). Full payloads are available only through authenticated API replays by the project owner.
