Test SendGrid webhooks
SendGrid sends event webhooks for email delivery, opens, clicks, bounces, and spam reports. Capture them on a free webhooks.cc endpoint to see exactly what SendGrid sends — or fire realistic sample payloads at your own handler without touching a production account.

How to test SendGrid webhooks
- 1
Create a webhook endpoint
Sign in free with GitHub or Google to create a persistent endpoint — or grab an instant guest URL at webhooks.cc/go without an account.
- 2
Point SendGrid at your URL
Paste the endpoint URL into SendGrid: SendGrid → Settings → Mail Settings → Event Webhook.
- 3
Inspect what arrives
Each delivery appears live in the dashboard with method, headers, body, query parameters, and source IP.
- 4
Forward to localhost or assert in CI
Run whk tunnel <port> to forward webhooks to a local server, or use the TypeScript SDK to wait for and assert on deliveries in tests.
SendGrid webhook signature
| Verification in webhooks.cc | Capture deliveries to inspect raw signature material |
|---|
SendGrid does not use a conventional signature header. Capture a real delivery to inspect exactly what is sent.
