It also has an incredibly useful debug console for HTTP(S) which allows you to inspect requests as they come in, its absolutely priceless when working on webhooks.
- FooBarWidget 10y agoWhy is that useful? Doesn't your web app or web framework already log requests?
- captn3m0 10y agoIt logs the headers and request body along with the response for every single route. This means if the server sending you a webhook changes routes, or sends some extra content or does something unexpected, you have immediate visibility into it and can replay the request with a single click. Pretty nifty.
- thedufer 10y agoMost of the time request bodies do not get logged, because they often contain sensitive information. The logging in ngrok also comes with a "replay request" button, which is very nice when you're testing webhooks that are a pain to fire.
