Step one

Pick an endpoint to send a request to. The endpoint can be any string comprised of the letters a-z, the numbers 0-9, and hyphens. It must be between 2 and 48 characters in length.

Nothing coming to you? Feel free to use the randomly generated URL below.

https://httpthing.com/frn7mz

Anyone with knowledge of your endpoint can view all requests sent to it, so it's best to pick something that isn't easily guessable.

Step two

Send an HTTP request to the URL from the first step. Requests are limited to 1MB in size and files will be ignored.

curl --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"hello":"world"}' https://httpthing.com/frn7mz

Step three

httpthing.com will capture your request and generate a unique URL as part of the response. Open the URL from the response in a browser to view the request details.
