Provider guide
HookTrace for Stripe webhooks
Persist every Stripe event before ACK, preserve Stripe-Signature, and replay failures with full context.
HookTrace captures Stripe webhooks durably before delivery, so you can debug timeouts, retries, and signature failures with confidence.
Setup
Route Stripe webhooks through HookTrace
Use your HookTrace proxy URL in the provider dashboard, then keep your existing handler as the target URL.
Create a Stripe endpoint in HookTrace
Name it “Stripe Production” and set your target URL to your existing Stripe handler.
Point Stripe to your proxy URL
In Stripe Dashboard → Webhooks, set the endpoint URL to https://api.katsuralabs.com/ingest/{endpointId}.
Add X-HookTrace-Secret header
Use the secret token from HookTrace. HookTrace will forward Stripe-Signature and raw body to your target.
Why HookTrace
Built for Stripe delivery incidents
Durable ingest, full payload visibility, and replay controls give you confidence when webhook deliveries fail.
Stripe-Signature preserved
HookTrace forwards Stripe-Signature so your existing verification logic keeps working.
Share links for debugging
Generate a redacted share link for any event to unblock team or customer support.
Replay without duplicates
Replay uses the same eventId and increments attempts; no duplicate records.
Capture-only mode
Use capture-only endpoints to triage Stripe issues without forwarding.
