ForwardingForward captured webhooks to one or more destinations, with optional payload transformation.→TransformationsReshape webhook payloads before forwarding with the visual editor and 23 built-in formatters.→Endpoint securityRestrict access to your HookDeploy endpoints with IP allowlists and secret token authentication.→Custom ResponsesOverride the HTTP response HookDeploy returns to webhook senders. Set a custom status code, response body, and dynamic variables for testing and mocking.→Response DelayAdd an artificial delay before HookDeploy responds to a webhook sender. Useful for testing timeout handling and retry logic.→Platform VerificationAutomatically handle webhook verification handshakes from Meta, Slack, and Zoom so your endpoint registers without extra configuration.→IncidentsCorrelate forward failures into incidents, triage with status and updates, and bulk-replay failed deliveries at a controlled rate.→EndpointsWhat endpoints are, how slugs work, pausing, and configuring a forward URL.→RequestsWhat HookDeploy captures for each webhook — headers, body, query, IP — plus retention and payload limits.→ReplayManually re-send captured webhooks to any HTTPS URL, with replay history and API support.→OrganizationsHow organizations, members, roles, and personal vs team orgs work in HookDeploy.→Private DeliveryDeliver captured webhooks to private services over Tailscale without exposing them to the public internet.→Cron jobsSchedule HTTP requests to any HTTPS URL on a recurring cadence with timezone-aware scheduling, run history, and failure notifications.→
