ApiBin

Minimal API toolbox for debugging HTTP clients and integrations.

Inspect requests, simulate behavior, and validate client handling fast.

What It Is

A lightweight HTTP test API for local development and CI.

What It Solves

Request debugging, error-path testing, latency simulation, and flaky upstream behavior.

How To Use

Choose an endpoint, add modifiers, run a request, inspect the response.

Example Calls

Run these requests to see the most common ApiBin workflows in seconds.

Start here when you need to verify what your backend really receives. It returns method, path, headers, query params and client IP in one payload.

POST /analyze?delay=250&foo=1&foo=2
curl 

  


  





  Use this to test standardized error handling.
  It triggers RFC7807-style problem details for unknown endpoints.




  

    
GET /does-not-exist?problem=true&status=422&retry=true&attempts=3&tags=a&tags=b

    

      
      
    

  


  

    

      curl
    

    

  


  





  Generate deterministic test data for demos and repeatable tests.
  Keep the same seed to get stable output.




  

    
GET /faker?profile=order&count=2&locale=de-DE&seed=42

        Typical Use
      

    
    
      

        status
        Forces HTTP status (100..599).
        Error and retry handling.
      

      

        delay
        Adds response delay in milliseconds.
        Timeouts and loading states.
      

      

        flaky
        Failure probability (0..1).
        Simulate unstable upstream behavior.
      

      

        header.<name>
        Sets or overrides response headers.
        Redirect, content-type, cache behavior.
      

      

        problem
        For unknown endpoints, returns RFC7807-style problem details.
        Test standardized error payload handling.
      

    
  





  Use modifiers as query params or as equivalent X-* headers.
  Example: ?status=404&delay=500 or
  X-Status: 404 + X-Delay: 500.
