httpbin
HTTP request and response inspector; echo headers, status codes, auth, delays
httpbin is a simple HTTP request and response service that echoes back whatever you send: headers, query args, request body, your IP, and lets you force arbitrary status codes, redirects, delays and auth challenges. It is the standard sandbox for testing HTTP clients, proxies and webhooks. Now maintained by Postman, and also self-hostable via Docker.
