Gain comprehensive control over API responses for testing edge cases and accelerating frontend development.

Zero Setup

Just Download Requestly in your browser and you are good to go in a few clicks while in Charles you need to install the application, manage system-level proxy settings, and install an SSL certificate.

No VPN Issue like Charles Proxy

Since Charles Proxy overrides system-level proxy settings, it doesn’t work well inside corporate VPNs. Requestly uses Chrome’s APIs to intercept & modify HTTPs requests and hence Requestly is free from all VPN issues.

      GraphQL’s single-endpoint design can hinder targeted API modification. Requestly solves this with operation name filters, enabling precise response manipulation in GraphQL environments – just as you’d expect with REST APIs.

      The Key Difference

      Http-toolkit
      HTTP Toolkit intercepts network calls of traditional desktop applications. It allows capturing and mocking network requests – ideal for deep dives into the network behavior of desktop applications.
      Requestly is a powerful, web development, mocking, and debugging suite. Its intuitive interface, comprehensive documentation, and team collaboration features will streamline your workflow.

      From Debug to Deploy: Developers Trust Requestly

      Requestly is awesome. I used to use Charles proxy in my day-to-day work but it always messed with my wifi. I haven’t had any issues with Requestly. Requestly’s UI is an amazing tool and great to work in.

      Carl Hand
      Senior Software Engineer at Workday

      Requestly not just made it easier for us to develop, test & debug our code on our customer sites but also helped us do engaging product demos to our prospective clients.

      Michael Levinson
      Co-Founder & CPO at Joyned

      I’m a big fan of Requestly, and use it on a daily basis as a QA Engineer. It removes the need to use Charles Proxy often, which is always nice. I can just use Requestly directly in Chrome

      Mike Mitchell
      QA Engineer at URBN

      Awesome tool. I use it almost daily for my projects to modify request body, headers, etc. Would recommend it to every frontend developer out there. Thank me later 🙂 (Case Study)

      Harsh Vats
      Frontend Engineer at PingSafe

      This is by far the best tool for managing request headers! Plus the developers are very active meaning you’ll get help if you’re ever stuck or need help solving a problem. I use it daily and couldn’t be happier.

      Jose Browne
      Senior Engineer at Reddit

      App works as expected! Ran into some small issues while creating the rules but the support team was able to help and overcome those.

      José Miguel Dias Fernandes
      Development Lead at Vodafone

      Requestly is user-friendly, brilliant and easy-to-use. I use it on an daily basis and it makes my work easier. After using other tools like Charles – Requestly is a nice new breath of air that I highly vouch for. Apart from the tool being amazing – the support from the Requestly team is phenomenal with them always going above and beyond for their clients.

      Marius Ludick
      Solutions Architect II at Amazon

      Requestly is an amazing tool to get your development work less hassle. The product itself has evolved so much since day-1 and the company is really serious on helping their customer solves their problems. We had this nice session where they shared Requestly features and we were very impressed on its potential. A truly 5-star worthy.

      Natchapol Thongruang
      Senior Software Engineer at Agoda

      Just loved the way Requestly saved several person hours for our dev team by allowing us to redirect and intercept requests. The simple yet efficient rules allowed us to seamlessly redirect requests from a single staging front-end server to local backend servers. This meant that our devs didn’t need to build or run the front-end server locally when focusing on backend tasks.

      Srijan Bhatnagar
      Senior Software Engineer at Atlassian

      Requestly is an incredibly useful tool for developers working on a large team with multiple staging envs, or numerous app endpoints for various APIs in a local environment. The Sessions feature is especially useful for documenting solutions or sharing with others since it captures the relevant network traffic, and screen recording enables others to easily reproduce. Requestly combines all the power of complicated tools like Charles Proxy and Postman in one app/chrome extension. I highly recommend giving it a try if you haven’t already–it will make your dev work so much easier. (Summarized)

      Joél Hawkins Torres
      Senior Software Engineer at Autodesk

      Modifying requests and/or responses is the killer feature area for me. Redirect JS in prod, generate mocks, modify headers, map local, map remote, SessionReplay, Load a local JS bundle, override scripts, etc. etc. etc. – TOTALLY worth it and very useful.
