Real-time Monitoring

HookNexus shows new webhook requests as they arrive using a live connection from the dashboard to the service.

Dashboard

When you are on the dashboard:

  1. A connection is opened for the endpoint you are viewing.
  2. New requests appear at the top of the list without refreshing the page.
  3. A status indicator shows whether you are connected.

If the network drops, the page will typically reconnect on its own.

API key stream (Plus)

On Plus, you can subscribe programmatically with an API key—useful for servers and automation. This connection shares the endpoint’s WebSocket concurrency limit with dashboard and CLI listeners. See API keys, WebSocket, and the Node.js API key listener demo for the URL format, limits, and examples.

Authentication

  • Dashboard — you are signed in through the normal web app.
  • Scripts — use an API key from Settings as documented for WebSocket; it is currently passed on the URL as the apikey query parameter.

If the connection drops

Refresh the dashboard or reconnect your WebSocket client. You can load recent history from the request list in the app when you need to catch up after an outage.
