HookTrace for GitHub webhooks
Capture GitHub webhook deliveries with full headers and payloads, and replay failures on demand.
HookTrace keeps every GitHub event durable and searchable, so you can debug signature errors and webhook retries in minutes.
No credit card. Keep your existing webhook handler.
Setup
Route GitHub webhooks through HookTrace
Use your HookTrace proxy URL in the provider dashboard, then keep your existing handler as the target URL.
Create a GitHub endpoint in HookTrace
Name it “GitHub Webhooks” and set your target URL to your GitHub handler.
Set the GitHub webhook URL
In GitHub → Settings → Webhooks, use https://api.katsuralabs.com/ingest/{endpointId}.
Add X-HookTrace-Secret header
Use the HookTrace secret token. HookTrace forwards GitHub headers and raw payload.
