Build frontend when the backend isn’t ready​

Use the Modify Response rule to create mock APIs with custom responses and status codes. Easily disable these mocks when actual APIs become available.

Test for edge/Corner cases

Simulate diverse API edge cases (e.g., missing parameters, null values, incorrect data types) without modifying the backend. This ensures robust error handling in your code.

GraphQL support​

GraphQL’s single-endpoint design can hinder targeted API modification. Requestly solves this with operation name filters, enabling precise response manipulation in GraphQL.

Async /Await Support​

Async /Await Support​
When faced with lengthy API calls or the need to manage multiple requests simultaneously, using an asynchronous approach with Async/Await can significantly improve efficiency.

★★★★★ on Chrome store

Requestly is the first API client that has genuinely replaced Postman for me. Everything runs locally, so my API data never has to go through a cloud server. There’s no mandatory login, no unnecessary bloat, and no pressure to upgrade just to keep using the same workflow. It feels faster, simpler, and much more aligned with how developers actually want to work.

★★★★★ on Chrome store

Postman stopped fitting the way our team works. We wanted our API collections in Git, not locked inside another tool. Requestly stores everything as plain JSON files in a local directory, which gives us full control over versioning, reviews, and collaboration.

★★★★★ on Chrome store

My absolute favorite web debugging proxy and API client. I use it nearly every day for work to modify HTTP requests, test and mock API calls, inject JS snippets into sites, etc. The Requestly team is incredible — I once submitted a bug report and it was closed out within an hour. Also just kind, passionate people. I can't recommend Requestly enough.

★★★★★ on Chrome store

Absolutely love the API Client feature! It’s like Postman, but better integrated into my daily workflow. Modifying API responses directly from the same tool I use for debugging is such a time-saver. Great job, Requestly team, for constantly innovating!

★★★★★ on Chrome store

We recently migrated from Postman to Requestly’s API Client, and it has been a great experience. The ability to store collections locally, keep them in Git, and work with simple JSON files made the transition seamless and much more developer-friendly.

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)

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.

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

Frequently Asked Questions​

There are frequently asked questions related to Requestly

What does the Modify API Response Rule do in Requestly?

The Modify API Response Rule lets you intercept API responses and change the response body before it reaches your application. This helps you test different backend scenarios without changing server code or waiting for backend updates.

What response formats can I modify using this rule?

You can modify JSON, XML, text, HTML, and other text-based API responses. This makes it easy to test UI behavior with different response structures, values, or edge cases.

Is Requestly open-source

Feel free to check out the GitHub repo

Is the Modify API Response rule available in the free plan?

Yes, you can use the Modify API Response rule in Requestly’s free plan for local testing and debugging.

Do I need a paid plan to create multiple API response modification rules?

No, you can create and use multiple response modification rules on the free plan. Paid plans mainly unlock collaboration, syncing, and team workflows.

Is Requestly free for students?

Yes! Requestly is free for students, enjoy access to powerful tools and features with no cost.

My Modify API Response rule is not working. What should I check?

First, make sure the rule is enabled, the URL matching condition is correct, and the request you are testing actually matches the configured endpoint. Also verify that Requestly interception is active.

Why are my API changes not showing in the application?

Browser cache, service workers, or application-level caching may be serving older responses. Try disabling cache in DevTools, hard refreshing the page, or clearing cached data before testing again.

Why Aren’t My Requestly Rules Working?

Rule not working doc

How do I change a JSON field in an API response using Requestly?

Create a Modify API Response rule, add the API endpoint in the source condition, select the JSON field you want to update, enter the new value, save the rule, and refresh your application. Matching responses will now return the modified data.

How do I test error states without backend changes?

Use the Modify API Response rule to change successful API responses into error responses by updating status fields, messages, or response data. This helps you test how your application handles failures.

How do I test feature flags or user permissions?

Intercept the API response that returns user settings or feature configurations, modify the relevant fields, and refresh your application to test different user experiences instantly.
