What is MockAPI?
MockAPI automatically generates REST endpoints with customizable test data. You can define the schema for each resource and it simulates GET, POST, PUT and DELETE operations with real data persistence between sessions. No code or configuration required.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Does MockAPI data persist between sessions?+
Yes, resources and data you create are saved on their servers and persist as long as the project is active.
Can I use MockAPI for automated tests in CI?+
It is possible, but since it is an external service, availability is not guaranteed. For CI, local mocks like json-server or MSW are a better fit.
