• Clash Royale API not working

  I used https://reqbin.com/ to try and make a request to the Clash Royale API using the generated bearer token as you can see in the screenshot. To whitelist my IP I googled my own public IP and pasted it to generate the key. Is this not the right way of calling an API? Or why is this not working. It keep returning 404 errors.

• Can I get a tutorial on how to change my user flair using the Reddit API?

  I know one needs to use the POST flairselector method to return certain metadata and use that in the POST selectflair method to change the flair. I have virtually zero programming experience and used ReqBin's API tester thanks to its simple UX, but keep getting HTTP 403 errors. Source: 12 months ago

• Documenting a Go API with OpenAPI 3 Standard: A Practical Guide

  This is a screenshot of when I tested the Go book API using ReqBin. The box highlighted in 'Magenta' is for the GET request URL, while the one highlighted in 'Red-orange' is for the 'Response'. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• Need Embeded widget code for my sport website

  Check out https://oddsmatrix.com/products/widgets/ for the less than tech savvy and they offer scores API’s also. In terms of how to write an API integration, a solid Google search based on the language you want to write in goes a long way. https://reqbin.com/ however will generate the basics structure though.

• Make your Azure OpenAI apps compliant with RBAC

  We will be performing all of the authentication requests manually, however for testing purposes, you might want to use an API testing tool such as Postman or Insomnia. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Local automation

  For a very long time, the go-to tool was curl. Great, always available command line tool. Unfortunately, there is one small issue. It’s hard to keep requests and collect them in collections, it’s great for one-time shots or debugging, but for constant working with API could be painful. To solve it, I started working with tools like Postman/Insomnia. Then eh... Strange licensing model, or changes which occurred... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Tools that Make Me Productive as a Software Engineer

  At first, I used Postman for testing APIs because it had a lot of features. But I switched to Insomnia because it was easier to use and kept everything organized. The big problem with Insomnia was that it deleted all my saved work when it made me create an account to keep using it. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Different Levels of Project Documentation

  Often used for cases where a project exposes a REST or other type of API service. Open API is a popular method of documenting such API services. It can also be used along side tools such as Swagger Codegen to produce boilerplate code for API interaction / testing purposes. There may also be support files for popular API testing tools such as Postman or Insomnia. This makes it easier at a glance to see what data is... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
