How to Use Free Dummy APIs for Rapid Prototyping

Quick Start: Fetching your first API

The easiest way to use our APIs is via the browser's native fetch API. Simply copy an endpoint from our list and call it from your code.

// Javascript Example
fetch('https://claritools.com/api/v1/free-api/animals')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data));

Tip: You can append ?id=1 to any endpoint to fetch a specific item from that category.

Supported HTTP Methods

Unlike static JSON files, our API system supports full RESTful method simulation. This is crucial for testing your forms and state management.

Note: POST, PUT, and DELETE methods are mocked. They will echo back your data but won't modify our persistent storage.

Why use Claritools APIs?

• Zero Configuration: No API keys, no headers, just clean JSON.
• CORS Enabled: Fetch data from any domain or localhost without proxy issues.
• High Quality Data: Professional schemas with images, categories, and realistic fields.
• Speed up UI Development: Don't wait for the backend team. Build with mock data now and swap URLs later.
