RequestBin Shut Down. Here's What to Use Instead

The original requestb.in is gone and requestbin.com now redirects to Pipedream — here's how to get the same one-click request bin today

Editorially reviewed by the Requex team4 min readAbout the product

Quick Answer

RequestBin no longer exists as a standalone tool. The original requestb.in shut down in 2018, and Pipedream's requestbin.com has been folded into the Pipedream platform. For the same experience — one click, instant public URL, inspect every request — requex.me gives you a free bin with no signup, plus custom responses and forwarding that RequestBin never had.

Get your request bin right now

One click, no account. Send any HTTP request and watch it appear below in real time.

What actually happened to RequestBin?

Two different products carried the RequestBin name, and both are gone as standalone tools:

  • requestb.in (the original) — the open-source bin by Jeff Lindsay, later run by Runscope. The public instance was discontinued in 2018 after sustained abuse made it impractical to operate.
  • requestbin.com (Pipedream) — Pipedream revived the name as a free tool, but it has since been absorbed into the Pipedream platform. Visiting requestbin.com today lands you in Pipedream's workflow product — an account, a workspace, and a builder — not the one-click bin developers bookmarked.

If you searched "requestbin" expecting a URL you can paste into a webhook setting ten seconds from now, that product no longer exists under that name.

The replacement, feature by feature

What RequestBin didRequex.me
Instant public URL, no signup✅ Same — one click on the homepage
Inspect headers, body, query params✅ Same, updating in real time over WebSocket
Fixed "ok" response only✅ Custom status, body, headers, delays per bin
No forwarding✅ Forward requests to localhost or any URL, with retries
No automation Workflows — route captured webhooks to Slack, Sheets, email

Migrating a RequestBin habit in 30 seconds

  • Open requex.me — a bin URL is created for you immediately.
  • Paste the URL wherever your webhook or HTTP client sends requests.
  • Watch requests arrive live — headers, body, query, method, source IP.
  • Optional: sign in (free) to keep your bins across sessions and devices.
