Getting Started

MockMyData is a mock API generator that lets you create live REST API endpoints in seconds.

1. 1. Sign up for a free account at mockmydata.io
2. 2. Create a new project with a custom subdomain
3. 3. Define your API endpoints and response data
4. 4. Start making requests to your live API

Creating a Project

A project is your isolated mock API environment. Each project gets its own subdomain and API key.

Creating Endpoints

Endpoints are the routes your API responds to. Each endpoint supports multiple HTTP methods.

Generating Records

Instead of writing JSON by hand, describe the data you want and MockMyData generates realistic records for you. Open an endpoint and click Generate Records Fast.

Any subject works: users, products, orders, animals, plants, chemical compounds — anything that fits in a table. Emails match the names in the same record, dates come back in UTC, and image fields get real URLs that actually load.

• • Free: 5 generations per day, up to 10 records each
• • Pro: 30 generations per day, up to 30 records each
• • Limits reset at midnight UTC

Making Requests

You can test your endpoints using any HTTP client like Postman, cURL, or fetch.

Data Persistence

Endpoints and their data are saved to your account and stay there until you change or delete them.

• • Changes made via POST, PUT, PATCH requests are saved
• • Each project has its own isolated data
• • The demo on the homepage is temporary and expires after 24 hours — sign up to keep your endpoints

Response Delay

Add artificial latency to any endpoint so you can test loading states, spinners, and timeout handling against a genuinely slow response.

• • Free: up to 2 seconds
• • Pro: up to 10 seconds
• • Set per endpoint, applied to every request
