Real-Time Streaming

SpidyLabs uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) to deliver webhook requests to your browser the instant they arrive. No manual refreshing, no polling intervals — just a live feed.

How It Works

When you open a bin, SpidyLabs establishes a persistent SSE connection between your browser and the server. When a new request hits your bin's webhook URL, the server pushes it through this connection immediately.

Connection Status

The heartbeat indicator in the top-right corner shows your connection status:

  • Green pulsing dot — Connected and receiving events
  • Disconnected — The connection was lost; SpidyLabs will automatically attempt to reconnect

Auto-Reconnection

If your connection drops (network change, sleep/wake, etc.), SpidyLabs automatically reconnects and resumes streaming. You won't miss any requests — they're stored on the server and will appear when the connection is restored.

Browser Tab Notifications

When requests arrive while SpidyLabs is in a background tab, the browser tab title updates to show the count of new unread requests, so you always know when something arrives.
