Question 1

What HTTP methods does the API Tester support?

Accepted Answer

The API Tester supports GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, and OPTIONS methods. Each method is color-coded for easy identification.

Question 2

Does the API Tester handle CORS issues?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Requests are proxied through our server to bypass CORS restrictions, so you can test any public API directly from the browser.

Question 3

Can I generate code from my API requests?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Code tab generates ready-to-use code snippets in cURL, JavaScript (fetch), Python (requests), and Go (net/http).

Question 4

Is my API data secure?

Request history and collections are stored locally in your browser using localStorage. No data is persisted on our servers beyond the proxy request.

Question 5

What authentication methods are supported?

Accepted Answer

The API Tester supports Bearer Token, Basic Auth (username/password), and API Key authentication. API keys can be added to headers or query parameters.
