Hookdeck (hookdeck)

Hookdeck is a Toronto-based webhook and event-infrastructure platform. The Hookdeck Event Gateway sits between webhook senders and your services to receive, verify, queue, retry, transform, filter, route, and observe events reliably at scale. Hookdeck exposes a fully versioned REST Admin API (api.hookdeck.com/2025-07-01), a CLI for local development, language SDKs (TypeScript, Go, Python, .NET), a Terraform provider, and the open-source Outpost project for self-hostable outbound webhook delivery.

At a Glance

Capability Notes
Inbound gateway HTTP sources with platform-aware signature verification (Stripe, GitHub, Twilio, Shopify, Linear, and more)
Outbound delivery HTTP endpoints, AWS SQS, Azure Service Bus, GCP Pub/Sub, Kafka, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, Hookdeck-as-destination
Reliability Persistent queue, retries with backoff, dead-letter, bulk retry, bulk cancel
Transforms Sandboxed JavaScript transformations with a sandboxed test runner
Routing Connections from Source → Destination with filters, delays, alerts, and per-rule transforms
Observability Aggregated metrics, full event/request/attempt history, Issue Triggers, Slack/Email/Teams/Discord/BetterUptime channels
API versioning Date-based segment in base URL (e.g., 2025-07-01)
Self-host Outpost for outbound webhook delivery (open source)

APIs

Hookdeck Connections API

Create, update, list, archive, pause, and unpause connections. A connection routes events from a Source to a Destination and may carry rules (retry, alert, transform, filter, delay) that determine how the gateway processes events along that path.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/api

Hookdeck Sources API

Manage sources — the upstream endpoints (webhook senders or push channels) that ingest events into Hookdeck. Sources support platform-specific verification, allowed HTTP methods, allowed content types, allowed IPs, and a configurable custom response returned to the caller.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/sources

Hookdeck Destinations API

Manage destinations — the downstream targets where Hookdeck delivers events. Supports HTTP endpoints, AWS SQS, Azure Service Bus, GCP Pub/Sub, Kafka, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, and more, with configurable auth methods, rate limits, path forwarding, archival, and pause/disable controls.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/destinations

Hookdeck Events API

List, retrieve, retry, mute, and inspect events and their delivery attempts. An event is any request Hookdeck received from a source; an attempt is each delivery try against a destination, including status, response body, response time, and error code.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/events

Hookdeck Requests API

List and inspect raw requests received by Hookdeck. A request precedes events and is what gets accepted at the gateway boundary before verification, fan-out, transformation, and routing produce one or more downstream events.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/requests

Hookdeck Transformations API

Manage transformations — sandboxed JavaScript executed against events to mutate headers, body, path, or query string before delivery. Includes a sandboxed run endpoint for testing transformation code against sample event payloads.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/transformations

Hookdeck Bookmarks API

Save bookmarked events for quick replay and one-click testing during development. Bookmarks let your team capture canonical event payloads and trigger them on demand into any destination.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/bookmarks

Hookdeck Bulk Operations API

Plan, schedule, and cancel bulk operations that retry or cancel many events, requests, or ignored events at once. Each bulk operation reports per-batch counts, total scope, and live progress, and can be cancelled mid-run.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/bulk-retries

Hookdeck Issues API

Track issues that occur on events, requests, and backpressure, and manage the triggers (rules) that open and route issues to Slack, Email, Microsoft Teams, Discord, BetterUptime, and other channels.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/issues

Hookdeck Metrics API

Query aggregated metrics for events, requests, and attempts — success counts, failure counts, response time, throughput, and SLA bands grouped by source, destination, or connection. Backs the dashboard analytics and downstream observability bridges.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/metrics

Hookdeck Integrations API

Configure platform integrations that adapt Hookdeck behavior for specific source platforms — including signature verification, header normalization, allowed event types, and platform-aware retries (e.g., Stripe, GitHub, Twilio, Shopify, Linear).

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/integrations

Hookdeck Notifications API

Manage how your team is notified when issues occur — channel routing, mute windows, per-team subscriptions, and the templates rendered to Slack, Email, Microsoft Teams, and Discord.

Human URL: https://hookdeck.com/docs/notifications
