Overview

Beeceptor lets you create a mock REST API endpoint in seconds directly from your browser, without writing any server code. You can intercept HTTP requests, define custom responses, and inspect incoming traffic—making it invaluable for frontend development and API testing when the real backend is not ready. No authentication or sign-up is required to create a basic mock endpoint.

💡

Beginner Tip

Go to beeceptor.com, enter a unique endpoint name, and you instantly get a URL you can send real HTTP requests to. Use the dashboard to inspect request headers, body, and parameters in real time.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Endpoint not found (404) The mock endpoint name you created has expired or was not yet set up.
✓ Endpoints on the free tier expire after inactivity; recreate the endpoint and update your test requests with the new URL.
Request rule not matching The incoming request path or method does not match your configured mocking rule.
✓ Check that your rule path pattern and HTTP method (GET/POST/etc.) match exactly what your client is sending.
Rate limit exceeded The free tier has a limit of 50 requests per day per endpoint.
✓ Upgrade to a paid plan for higher limits, or create a new endpoint name to reset the counter for quick testing.
