Request Tester ​

Request Tester is a lightweight alternative to Postman or Apifox. It supports custom GET and POST requests so you can quickly check whether an endpoint is reachable, whether its parameters are correct, and whether the response meets expectations.

When to use it ​

  • Verify that an endpoint is available and returns the expected result
  • Quickly test the effect of parameters or request headers
  • Reproduce a request without writing code

Steps ​

  1. Open Features → Request Tester.
  2. Choose a request method (GET or POST).
  3. Enter the request URL.
  4. Add Parameters and Request Headers as needed.
  5. Tap Send and inspect the response.

Field reference ​

  • URL: The complete request address. Include the protocol, for example https://example.com/api.
  • Parameters: Request key-value pairs. GET appends them to the URL; POST sends them in the request body.
  • Request Headers: Custom key-value pairs, such as Authorization and Content-Type.

Tips ​

  • If the endpoint requires authentication, add the appropriate token to the request headers.
  • To investigate a network problem, first visit the same URL in the system browser and compare the results.
