What Is an API Request Tester?
An API Request Tester sends HTTP requests to any API endpoint and displays the response. It's a browser-based alternative to tools like Postman or Insomnia, letting you quickly test GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests with custom headers, body, and authentication — all without installing anything.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why am I getting CORS errors?
Most APIs don't allow requests from web browsers for security. This tool works best with your own APIs, CORS-enabled APIs, and public test APIs. Use the generated cURL command for CORS-blocked APIs.
Is this a Postman replacement?
For quick, ad-hoc API testing — yes, with no installation needed. For complex workflows, collections, and team features, Postman offers more. This tool excels at fast testing.
Can I test authenticated APIs?
Yes. Add Bearer tokens or Basic auth via the Auth tab. Credentials are only sent to the target API, never stored on our servers.
Can I generate code?
Yes. Generate equivalent code in cURL, JavaScript (fetch), Python (requests), or Node.js (axios) from any request you build.
Is my data private?
Yes. Requests go directly from your browser to the target API. History is session-only. No data touches our servers.
