Everything you can do right now

Bins are your campsites in the wilderness of HTTP. Here is the gear that ships with this app today.

Bins & capture
  • Unique ingest URL per bin (ULID) at /w/{id}
  • Optional label; guest bins without sign-up
  • Stores method, full URL, query, headers, body, content type, client IP
  • Live dashboard updates via Server-Sent Events
  • Filter captures by HTTP method and text search (URL, body, IP)
Ingress & relay
  • Configurable HTTP status, response body, and Content-Type returned to senders
  • Optional forward URL: relay each request to your backend (fire-and-forget)
  • Per-bin ingress rate limit (requests per minute)
  • Optional retention window (days) for captures
Inspect & export
  • Per-bin display transforms: mask header/query/JSON body fields and rename headers for safe screenshots and shares (syntax and behavior: Request transformations in README)
  • Export all captures as JSON download
  • Diff two captures side by side
  • Replay a saved capture to any URL you choose
  • Clear capture history for a bin
Accounts & API
  • Register, profile, and list bins tied to your user
  • Save a guest bin to your account (same URL)
  • Sanctum API tokens and /api/v1 for bins and captures
  • Guest JSON API for stream and capture reads (browser session)
  • Teams (workspaces) with owner, admin, editor, and viewer roles; shared bins per team; personal bins stay private to you
  • Per-bin invites by email (viewer or editor) on personal bins or single team bins—without adding people to the whole team
Traffic alerts
  • Optional email, Slack incoming webhook, or custom HTTPS JSON webhook when a bin receives ingress traffic
  • Per-bin cooldown to limit alert frequency; configure mail in .env for email delivery
OpenAPI & API docs
  • Public machine-readable spec at /openapi/v1.yaml
  • Interactive reference at /docs/api (Swagger UI: Try it out, Bearer auth, cURL request snippets)
  • Documents Sanctum /api/v1, browser session JSON routes, SSE stream, and webhook ingress /w/{id}
Usage analytics & audit log
  • Per-bin page: last 30 days of capture volume plus an append-only audit trail for that bin (exports, settings, replay, diff, etc.)
  • Account page (signed in): traffic across all bins, Sanctum API request counts, and a merged audit log including token create/revoke
  • API usage metrics only include Bearer-authenticated calls to /api/v1

No account required to start.
