One reliability layer.
Dozens of use cases.
Relay every request safely. Retain every payload before it reaches your backend. Recover from failures without losing a single request — without managing the underlying stack.
Pick your scenario.
Every scenario below is a real situation teams face when building on APIs. getrequest covers all of them.
Launch APIs without a backend
Your backend isn't ready. Launch a getrequest endpoint that returns real JSON and unblock your frontend team immediately — no server to provision, no config to manage.
action: jsonCapture and inspect webhooks
A third-party service is firing webhooks and your handler is broken. Point the webhook URL at getrequest — every payload is captured and inspectable before you write a single handler.
POST Stripe webhook → capturedDeliver webhooks without blocking on your backend
Providers expect a fast acknowledgement, not a wait on your handler. Set the endpoint to Async API — getrequest acks the caller instantly and delivers to your backend in the background, retrying automatically if it's slow or down.
action: async_forward → 202 AcceptedAuthenticate endpoints and outbound calls
Require a credential before getrequest processes a request, and attach a credential to the call it makes to your backend — Bearer, API Key, Basic, or HMAC, on either side, entirely independent settings.
auth: hmac → Stripe-Signature verifiedObserve upstream API traffic
Replace your upstream URL with a getrequest forwarding endpoint. Every request your system sends and every response it receives is now fully visible — without touching your code.
destination: api.stripe.comRecover from production failures
A request failed in production. Find it in the log, replay it against your fixed build, confirm the issue is resolved — before it ships. Failure recovery with one click.
↺ replay req_8xm2k9pShare incident evidence across teams
Generate a share link to any captured request and paste it in the incident ticket. Links expire after 30 days and can be revoked. Your whole team sees the exact failure — headers, body, response — without needing access to your environment.
getrequest.io/share/req_...Validate integration contracts
Verify that a third party is sending the right fields in the right format before your handler goes live. Capture inbound requests and inspect the schema against your expectations.
POST Partner webhook → inspectRide out webhook bursts
A provider sends a burst and your API slows down. With Async API, each sender gets a 202 right away and delivery happens in the background, retried up to 6 times, so a slow or failing backend doesn't bounce back to the sender. Requests past your plan's quota get a 429 and are still logged.
action: Async API → 202, retried deliveryRecover lost requests after downtime
Your backend went down and requests kept arriving. Sync callers got a 502 or 504, and each request was logged with its full payload. Async deliveries kept retrying for about 36 minutes. When your systems recover, replay whatever still failed with the exact original payloads.
↺ replay retained queueBulk-recover from a widespread outage
Hundreds of requests failed while your backend was down. Select them or filter to the incident window, and retry all of them in one action — paced automatically so you don't re-overwhelm a backend that just came back up.
⇋ bulk retry: 214 matchedBuilt for every team that builds on APIs.
getrequest scales from a solo side project to a platform team managing production API traffic.
Backend & API engineers
Relay traffic through a controlled layer, retain every request before it hits your backend, and recover from failures with one-click replay. The reliability layer you'd otherwise have to build yourself.
Platform & DevOps teams
Replace piecemeal gateway configs, log pipelines, and retry infrastructure with one layer. getrequest Relays, Retains, and Recovers — without a dedicated engineer maintaining three separate tools.
QA & reliability engineers
Validate exactly what your system relays, inspect every retained payload against expected schema, and replay failures precisely to confirm fixes. Full request lifecycle visibility without custom instrumentation.
Relay. Retain. Recover. From day one.
The API Reliability Layer your team can activate today — no gateway config, no code changes, no ops overhead.
