Getting set up

Create your workspace, send your first event and turn on notifications.

Quickstart

  1. Sign in at litehook.app/signin with your email. New accounts get their own workspace address, like lark.litehook.app.
  2. Turn on notifications on your phone. See Your phone.
  3. Add a source in Sources. Copy its source address and secret. They're shown only once.
  4. Send your first event. The dialog after creating a source has ready-made commands; for a URL token source:
curl -X POST 'https://litehook.app/hook/SOURCE_ID/SOURCE_SECRET' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"title":"Hello from my server","level":"success"}'

A 202 means Litehook saved the event.

Your phone

iPhone and iPad

  1. Open your workspace address in Safari.
  2. Tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
  3. Open Litehook from the new icon and sign in.
  4. Open Settings → Devices, tap Enable on this device, then choose Allow in the notification prompt.

Web notifications need iOS or iPadOS 16.4 or later and only work from the Home Screen app. No Safari WebKit Feature Flags or Experimental Features changes are needed. If permission was denied, allow Litehook in the device’s Settings → Notifications → Litehook. To check delivery, open this device in Litehook and tap Send test.

Android and desktop

Open your workspace address in Chrome, Edge or Firefox and choose Enable on this device on the Devices page. On Android you can also install it from the browser menu.

Each device then chooses which sources it hears about and when. See Devices.
