You can upload a JSON file to Requestly Interceptor’s File Server and use it as a API endpoint in your application by creating a Redirect Rule, which is perfect for testing and development scenarios. Here are the steps to set it up:
1

Go to the File Server in Requestly Interceptor Dashboard

From the Requestly Interceptor dashboard, click on “Files” in the left menu bar.
2

Click on "New file" or upload a JSON file directly.

This allows you to start creating a new JSON or import an existing JSON file.
3

Enter the details for the New File.

Provide a descriptive name for the file and Configure the following options on the creation screen:
  • Method: Select the HTTP method to be used (e.g., GET, POST, etc.).
  • Status: Specify the HTTP response status code (e.g., 200, 404, 500).
  • Content Type: Define the content type of the response (e.g., application/json).
  • Latency: Optionally, add a delay (in milliseconds) to simulate network latency.
  • Endpoint: Define the unique path or endpoint for the File.
  • Response Body: Provide the body of the response in JSON or plain text.
  • Response Headers (optional): Add custom headers to the response as needed.
  • Password Protection: In the “More” dropdown, you can set a password for your JSON file. If a password is set, users must include it as a query parameter (e.g., rq_password=<password>) to access the file’s contents.

Click on "Create" to finalize your file creation.

Once created, you can copy the generated URL using the “Copy URL” button.
Your JSON file is now ready! Copy the generated URL to see it in action. This endpoint can be utilized in multiple ways:
  • Integrate the endpoint into your application to replace live API calls during testing.
  • Use tools like Postman or cURL to manually test and validate the file responses.
