Local tunneling

Three ways to expose a local receiver. Pick whichever you already have a habit with.

$
ngrok http 8787
$
# Forwarding  https://aurora-1234.ngrok.app -> http://localhost:8787

Free tier rotates the subdomain on every restart. Paid plans pin a custom domain.

$
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8787

No account required for ephemeral tunnels. Persistent tunnels need a Cloudflare account and a domain.

$
tailscale funnel 8787

Works if your device is already on Tailscale. URL persists across restarts.

Copy the HTTPS URL and paste it into Admin → Developer → Webhooks → Add endpoint. Toggle Test mode on so live deliveries don’t hit your laptop.
