How to Use API Tester — In-Browser REST Client

How to Use the API Tester:

  1. Select HTTP Method: Choose GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, or HEAD from the method dropdown.

  2. Enter the URL: Type or paste the full endpoint URL including https://. Press Enter or click Send to dispatch the request.

  3. Configure Headers: Open the Headers tab to add, edit, or disable request headers. Two defaults (Content-Type and Accept) are pre-filled — uncheck or remove them as needed.

  4. Add a Request Body (POST/PUT/PATCH): Open the Body tab and enter your payload. Typically JSON:

{ "name": "Alice", "email": "alice@example.com" }
  1. Read the Response: The response panel shows the HTTP status code, duration in milliseconds, all response headers, and the body — automatically pretty-printed if it is valid JSON.

HTTP Methods:

  • GET — Retrieve data. No body. Safe and idempotent.
  • POST — Create a resource. Body required.
  • PUT — Replace a resource. Full body required.
  • PATCH — Partial update. Send only the fields to change.
  • DELETE — Remove a resource. Usually no body.
  • HEAD — Like GET but returns headers only. Useful for checking if a resource exists.

Common Request Headers:

  • Content-Type: application/json — body is JSON
  • Authorization: Bearer <token> — JWT or OAuth token
  • X-API-Key: <key> — custom API key header
  • Accept: application/json — request JSON response

CORS Limitations: Browsers enforce CORS policies. If the target API does not send appropriate CORS headers, your browser blocks the request. This is a browser security feature. For APIs that block browsers, use curl or Postman from your terminal instead.

Privacy: All requests are sent directly from your browser to the target server. Nothing passes through 100Plus Tools servers. URLs, headers, and bodies are not stored or logged.

Common Status Codes:

  • 200 OK — request succeeded
  • 201 Created — resource created
  • 204 No Content — success, no body
  • 400 Bad Request — invalid input
  • 401 Unauthorized — authentication required
  • 403 Forbidden — not allowed
  • 404 Not Found — resource does not exist
  • 422 Unprocessable Entity — validation failed
  • 429 Too Many Requests — rate limited
  • 500 Internal Server Error — server-side error
