  • Use cases include testing webhooks, sharing demos with teammates, and exposing a local MVP to clients without exposing your entire network.

Quick Start

Start a local service, then initiate a Pinggy SSH tunnel to expose it publicly.

Frequently Asked Questions about pinggy-tunnel

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I expose a local development server to the public internet for webhook testing?▼

You can expose a local development server to the public internet by creating an SSH reverse tunnel. This forwards a local port to a public URL, allowing external services to reach your local environment for webhook testing without installing extra daemons.

Can I share a local web app demo with a client without deploying it?▼

Yes, you can share a local web app demo without deploying it by using a short-lived SSH tunnel. This securely exposes your local port to a public URL, enabling remote collaboration and client demos across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Do I need to install a daemon to create an SSH tunnel for port forwarding?▼

No, you do not need to install a daemon to create an SSH tunnel for port forwarding. The process uses ephemeral SSH reverse tunnels to route traffic from a public address directly to your local port, requiring no background service installation.

What is the best way to test webhooks on a local machine across different operating systems?▼

The best way to test webhooks on a local machine across different operating systems is using ephemeral SSH tunnels. This approach supports Windows, macOS, and Linux environments, providing a public URL that forwards webhook payloads directly to your local service.

Does Pinggy support one-shot tunnels for temporary local dev exposure?▼

Yes, Pinggy supports one-shot tunnels for temporary local dev exposure. It initiates short-lived SSH reverse tunnels to securely forward a local port to a public URL, which is ideal for quick demos and remote collaboration.
