Usign BOOMERANG

The Boomerang (SOAP & REST Client) extension, typically used in web browsers, can also be beneficial for interacting with APIs like Codis365.

Last updated 4 months ago

  1. Testing API Endpoints: Boomerang allows developers to quickly send requests to API endpoints directly from the browser. This can be especially useful for making quick checks and testing API functionality without the need for a more comprehensive tool like POSTMAN or scripting in the development environment.

  2. Simplified Use: Boomerang provides a straightforward, user-friendly interface that simplifies the process of making API requests. It's a great tool for those who might not need the full suite of features that POSTMAN offers but still require the capability to interact with APIs directly from a web browser.

  3. Debugging: Like POSTMAN, Boomerang allows for detailed inspection of API responses. Developers can view status codes, headers, and response bodies, which are crucial for troubleshooting and ensuring that the API is returning the expected data.

  4. Learning and Experimentation: For new developers or those new to a particular API, Boomerang can serve as a learning tool. It provides an easy way to experiment with different API requests and understand the structure and requirements of the Codis365 API without setting up a complex environment.

  5. Quick Modifications: Boomerang’s interface allows for quick modifications of headers, query parameters, and request bodies. This feature is particularly useful in scenarios where developers need to test how slight changes to the request affect the API response.

  6. Convenience: Being a browser extension, Boomerang is readily accessible without the need to install additional software. This makes it convenient for quick tests or demonstrations, even on systems where you might not have administrative rights to install new applications.

  7. Collaboration: Although not as advanced as POSTMAN in this regard, Boomerang still allows for some level of sharing of API requests. Developers can export their configured requests and share them with others, facilitating collaboration.
