A REST client for almost any web service.
Download for: Firefox | Chrome
You can...
- perform HTTP requests with any method, URL, body and custom headers.
- save favorite requests and organize them in collections.
- view a history of your requests, which includes the full request and response.
The add-on supports the following goodies:
- Create and save your authorization headers with Basic, OAuth 2 or Cookie authentication.
- Use placeholders in saved requests.
- Use shortcuts for the frequently used actions (try pressing "?" to see the available shortcuts for the current context).
It requires a few permissions to do this. Which permissions and why?
