CRUD endpoints live in under 30 seconds

Fake REST API Generator

Define your data schema with a simple form builder, pick from 200+ realistic field types, and get a live REST API with GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE endpoints — all without touching a backend.

Stop wasting time on mock backend boilerplate

Hardcoded JSON arrays

Maintaining giant hardcoded JSON files in your codebase isn't sustainable. Data gets stale, shapes diverge, and tests break.

json-server complexity

Running json-server locally requires a setup script, a db.json file, and yet another process to manage — and it isn't shareable.

Backend blocking frontend

Waiting for the backend team to finish an endpoint before writing UI code slows the entire team down unnecessarily.

Build your fake REST API in 3 steps

No YAML files, no JSON fixtures, no local server. Define fields in a UI, get endpoints in seconds.

1

Define your routes

Name a route like "/products" or "/orders". Add fields using the form builder — pick the type from 200+ Faker.js options.

2

Generate fake data

We generate up to 100 realistic records per route using the field types you selected. Hit regenerate any time for fresh data.

3

Call your live API

Hit your endpoints from any client — browser, React, mobile, Postman — with full CRUD support and pagination out of the box.

CRUD operations on your generated API

Every route supports all four HTTP methods with no additional configuration.

List records (GET)

GET https://api.restfaker.dev/api/schema/products
  ?page=1&perPage=5
apiToken: YOUR_API_TOKEN

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "prod_k2x8n",
      "name": "Wireless Keyboard",
      "price": 49.99,
      "category": "Electronics",
      "inStock": true
    }
  ],
  "meta": { "total": 100, "page": 1, "perPage": 5, "pages": 20 }
}

Create a record (POST)

POST https://api.restfaker.dev/api/schema/products
apiToken: YOUR_API_TOKEN
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "name": "USB-C Hub",
  "price": 34.99,
  "category": "Accessories"
}

→ 201 Created
{ "id": "prod_new9x", "name": "USB-C Hub", ... }

Sorted list (GET with query params)

GET https://api.restfaker.dev/api/schema/products
  ?sort=price&order=desc&page=2&perPage=10
apiToken: YOUR_API_TOKEN

Everything a fake REST API generator should have

Full CRUD

GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE — every route you define gets all four methods automatically.

200+ Field Types

Pick from 200+ Faker.js field types: names, emails, dates, prices, UUIDs, addresses, and more.

Sorting & Pagination

Query with ?sort=name&order=asc and ?page=2&perPage=20. Works on every route out of the box.

Unique API Token

Each project gets a unique token and base URL. Share access with teammates securely.

One-Click Regeneration

Need fresh data? Hit regenerate to wipe and reseed all records instantly — no data editing required.

Download Types & Collection

Export a Postman collection or TypeScript interfaces for every schema in one click.

Why Rest Faker beats json-server and hardcoded fixtures

Hosted — no local server, no port conflicts, no shared json files

Realistic data — field types drive smart generation, not lorem ipsum

Full CRUD without writing a single route handler

Pagination and sorting built in — no extra middleware

Team-friendly — share a URL, not a file to clone and run locally

Scenario engine — simulate 500 errors, slow APIs, and rate limits easily
