Create \u0026 Customize API Requests**\n\n- Create different types of HTTP requests (`GET`, `HEAD`, `POST`, `PATCH`, `PUT` and `DELETE`).\n- Easily manipulate and play around with request inputs like `headers`, `query parameters` and `body`.\n- Full support to send text content with 🥳 Unicode/Emoji and preview any API response containing Unicode/Emoji.\n- Create GraphQL requests with `headers` and `query`.\n\n**💼 Organize Requests in Collections \u0026 Folders**\n\n- Create collections and folders to organize your requests.\n- Press and Drag to Re-arrange requests.\n- Click and open popup menu to rename, duplicate and delete a request.\n\n**🔎 Visually Preview and Download Data \u0026 Multimedia API Responses**\n\n- Inspect the API Response (HTTP status code, error message, headers, body, time taken).\n- View formatted code previews for responses of various content types like `JSON`, `XML`, `YAML`, `HTML`, `SQL`, etc.\n- API Dash helps explore, test \u0026 preview Multimedia API responses which is **not supported by any other API client**. You can directly test APIs that return images, PDF, audio \u0026 more. Check out the [full list of supported MIME types/formats here](https://github.com/foss42/apidash?tab=readme-ov-file#mime-types-supported-by-api-dash-response-previewer).\n- Save 💾 response body of any mimetype (`image`, `text`, etc.) directly in the `Downloads` folder of your system by clicking on the `Download` button.\n\n**👩🏻‍💻 Code Generation**\n\n- We started out as the **only** open source API client which supported advanced Dart code generation to easily integrate APIs in Dart/Flutter projects or to directly run it on DartPad. With time we have added more code-gens and currently API Dash supports generation of well-tested integration codes for **JavaScript**, **Python**, **Kotlin** \u0026 various other languages. You can check out the [full list of supported languages/libraries](https://github.com/foss42/apidash?tab=readme-ov-file#code-generators).\n\n**🌙 Full Dark Mode Support**\n\n- Easily switch between light mode and dark mode.\n\n**💾 Data**\n\n- Data is persisted locally on the disk. To save the current snapshot, just press the **Save** button in the collection pane.\n- Click and open the collection/folder popup menu to export it as HAR. This can be version controlled \u0026 can be directly imported in other API Clients like Postman, Paw, etc.\n- Export your entire data into a HAR (HTTP Archive) file. To access this option goto `Settings \u003e Export Data`.\n\n**⚙️ Settings \u0026 Other Options**\n\n- Customize various options using a dedicated Settings screen.\n- Window Configuration (Size \u0026 Position) is persisted and restored on app start.

You can directly test APIs that return images, PDF, audio \u0026 more.\n\nHere is the complete list of MIME types that can be directly previewed in API Dash:\n\n| File Type | Mimetype                   | Extension         | Comment  |\n| --------- | -------------------------- | ----------------- | -------- |\n| PDF       | `application/pdf`          | `.pdf`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/mp4`                | `.mp4`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/webm`               | `.webm`           |          |\n| Video     | `video/x-ms-wmv`           | `.wmv`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/x-ms-asf`           | `.wmv`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/avi`                | `.avi`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/msvideo`            | `.avi`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/x-msvideo`          | `.avi`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/quicktime`          | `.mov`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/x-quicktime`        | `.mov`            |          |\n| Video     | `video/x-matroska`         | `.mkv`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/apng`               | `.apng`           | Animated |\n| Image     | `image/avif`               | `.avif`           |          |\n| Image     | `image/bmp`                | `.bmp`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/gif`                | `.gif`            | Animated |\n| Image     | `image/jpeg`               | `.jpeg` or `.jpg` |          |\n| Image     | `image/jp2`                | `.jp2`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/jpx`                | `.jpf` or `.jpx`  |          |\n| Image     | `image/pict`               | `.pct`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/portable-anymap`    | `.pnm`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/png`                | `.png`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/sgi`                | `.sgi`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/svg+xml`            | `.svg`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/tiff`               | `.tiff`           |          |\n| Image     | `image/targa`              | `.tga`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/vnd.wap.wbmp`       | `.wbmp`           |          |\n| Image     | `image/webp`               | `.webp`           |          |\n| Image     | `image/xwindowdump`        | `.xwd`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-icon`             | `.ico`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-portable-anymap`  | `.pnm`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-portable-bitmap`  | `.pbm`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-portable-graymap` | `.pgm`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-portable-pixmap`  | `.ppm`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-tga`              | `.tga`            |          |\n| Image     | `image/x-xwindowdump`      | `.xwd`            |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/flac`               | `.flac`           |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/mpeg`               | `.mp3`            |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/mp4`                | `.m4a` or `.mp4a` |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/x-m4a`              | `.m4a`            |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/wav`                | `.wav`            |          |\n| Audio     | `audio/wave`               | `.wav`            |          |\n| CSV       | `text/csv`                 | `.csv`            | Can be improved |\n\nWe welcome PRs to add support for previewing other multimedia MIME types. Please go ahead and raise an issue so that we can discuss the approach.\nWe are adding support for other MIME types with each release.
