Yet Another REST Client
Description from store

YARC has a number of powerful features...

Favorites:
- Save favorite requests (including headers, payload etc.) and re-use them with the click of a button.
- Import/Export favorites.
- Your favorites are automatically synced with your Google account and are not tied to a single machine.

History:
- View all your previous requests and responses.
- Easily run them again.
- Easily filter out the requests you're not interested in.

Custom Headers:
- Choose from a large range of existing request headers.
- Create and save your own custom request headers.

More...
- View the request response in beautiful syntax highlighting (including JSON, XML, HTML and CSS).
- See how long each request took to complete.
- Supports GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, HEAD and OPTIONS request methods. Custom request methods can also be added by the user.
- HTTP Basic Authentication.
- Responsive Design.
- Dark Mode.
- 100% Free. No strings attached.

Note on Extension Permissions: The badly named "Read and change all your data" permission is required to send a request to any domain. YARC does not access or use your data in any way.

Due to XMLHttpRequest limitations, the Custom Headers feature doesn't work as expected and is blocked when setting request headers such as User-Agent or Cookie. If you need to specify these headers, you should use another Rest Client Extension. The UI is simple and easy to understand. Overall, it's a good extension.

Many thanks, Paul! Waiting for the feature to organize favorites in folders!

So good extension.

A very sweet extension indeed. Been using this for the past 5 hours and find it very, very useful and intuitive. Thanks for making this available. I've been using the Rest Client extension in VSCode, Postman and also Insomnia as well and find this really handy to be embedded in the browser along with the JSON Viewer extension.

Been using YARC for awhile now - rock solid, simple to use, no login or other stuff required (like good ol' Postman)

I use other REST api test tools, but this is the only one that allows me to debug my code in phpStorm as it runs in the the browser in localhost and generates xdebug messages that can be traced. I don't understand why anyone that uses such a useful tool FOR FREE should rate it badly. Thank you very much Paul!!!

Its nice and handy.. missing some UI features that would make it more user friendly. Mainly being able to search the body of the requests, and making it easier to store/organize requests.

Helpful app. Suggestion...for saving favorites, can you add a folder structure?

Not working for me. I can't pass any data to API thru GET or POST request. I'm very dissapointed :(

Simple and efficient! works as expected without all those new annoying bugs and features and annoyance you find in Postman. I highly recommend it. Indeed, after disappointment with some of REST Clients such as postman and ARC, I decided to write a simple rest client for myself (and others) but I searched chrome-store and find this extension. It does what it should do. My suggestion to author: please keep it as simple as it is. If you want to make money out of it, just place a few small adds. Please do not try to build a business out of it as Postman did.

Used postman - but it's getting heavy after each updates - This is the simplest and lightest among all other tools

johnny brasseur 2020-11-26

Excellent , ne faisant que du Json je n'en vois pas les limites pour le moment. Peut être que charger/décharger un contenu (payload ou response) serait un plus . Merci pour ce chouette outil .
