Description from store YARC (Yet Another REST Client) is an easy-to-use REST Client for Google Chrome. Use it to develop, test and debug RESTful APIs. It 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 - 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.

(2020-02-23) Daniel G.: Headers are broken. I'm trying to override referer and accept-encoding, but this app ignores what I enter and makes the request without them. Also, it sends data to Google (Analytics & DoubleClick)

(2019-08-14) Girish BN: This is one of my personal favorite. its simple and quick to use. The USP of this would be its simplicity. Thanks for Hitz for such an useful extension. I have a wish to have description/tag box for each request, so to search later easily. can i fork it??
(2019-07-16) Сергей Дуванов: Sometimes there are problems with server response. The extension does not overwrite the response from the server and shows the previous one. In this case, the response code shows the correct

(2019-05-29) Dmitrii Zaporozhets: Nice tool! Thanks a lot!
(2019-04-19) Liz Spangler: No option to see raw response and doesn't even show http status or returned message body if status isn't 2xx. Not useful for testing a service.

(2018-06-15) Subbarao Nalagandla: Very very useful.. I Feel no need to keep the same link in the history... should consider removing duplicate links in history as the list keeps on growing.... You can provide another page for audit or time based history...
(2018-04-06) Jarosław Szopa: The best one; for testing RESTful services. Many thanks.
(2018-03-22) Pet Er: The same criticism applies to this extension, so I'll just copy it again. Returned links are not clickable, you have to paste them manually to follow them. This kills usability. Additionally, it should support templated links. As it stands it is better to use an extension to display JSON and the developer console.
(2018-02-22) Theresa S: GET/PUT/POST, no problem what's so ever. Love it!
(2018-02-12) Satya Sidhartha: Best REST test tool I have used till now.. Keep up the good work.
(2018-01-25) Darren Gill: This client was really helpful in my efforts to build SharePoint Workflows. Other people have reported that it is limited in only sending JSON, I can't comment on that point, but for analysis of SharePoint content responses and what I need to build SPD 2013 workflows this has been a gift horse!
(2018-01-12) Anirudha Gohokar: Useless for making custom requests.
(2017-11-10) Michael Enke: On a service which is secured via ssl certificate: Response Status: - Unknown Status Code and Response Body: There was a error in the response. This is often due to a mis-configured service. Works well with Firefox RESTED
(2017-10-05) Tharaka Devinda: Useless for POST with data other than JSON
(2017-09-15) Stuart Lowe: Great App and utility.
(2017-08-11) 장성권: 좀더 써봐야겠지만 잘만든거 같아요

(2020-02-12, v:1.1.2) Mario Valle: Seems YARC does not work with HTTP2
I use YARC to debug a server built with Node.js and using HTTP2 createSecureServer(). If I contact https://localhost:4321/ it gives a -1 status. Instead, if I switch to HTTP based server that uses createServer(), it works flawlessly. Where I'm wrong? Thanks for clarifying! mario

My eyes burn pls. Great app btw!
(2019-09-03, v:1.1.2) Scott Thompson: History Location
Hello, I have inadvertently deleted my history. I was wondering if you can provide the location of the history file so I may reload from a backup. I am on a windows platform. thank you
(2019-07-30, v:1.1.2) A Kost: Response window issue
Discovered that if a rest service returns an XMLstring, YARC will display it as XML on the Response Body (RAW) page, rather than the XMLstring that it actually is. Minor issue. Love the simplicity of this client.

(2019-02-04, v:1.1.2) Marco M.: Favorites
Hi, I really love this application, it is very useful but It could be very great if I can create folders for my favorites so that I can group them. Thanks a lot
(2018-12-05, v:1.1.2) JSON
I am trying to send JSON in a put, but the other side sees all these escaped quotes. send: {"predicTrackTable":[{"satellite_k":"Kevin","epoch_k":"2018-11-29 23:59:37.032","azimuth":76.1,"elevation":75.2}]} receive: "predicTrackTable": [ { "satellite_k": "\"Kevin\"", "epoch_k": "\"2018-11-29 23:59:37.032\"", "azimuth": "76.1", "elevation": "75.2" } ] How do I put JSON in the payload window, to avoid being spammed with needless escaped quotes everywhere?
(2018-03-21, v:1.1.2) Kevin Moodley: Cookies
Where / how do I see the cookies returned by the call? Many sites return session IDs and tokens in cookies Thanks Kevin
(2018-02-01, v:1.1.2) Mike Marsh: Download Response
YARC has been great for working with the API for a learning management system my university uses. Currently, though, I have to copy responses to the clipboard and paste them into files if I want to save the output. It would be incredibly helpful to be able to directly download the responses.
(2017-11-08, v:1.1.1) ri chas: Keeps saying its corrupt
Each time I click on the icon to open the extension, the icon disappears and the site isn't displayed. If I go back into extensions, it is still listed but it says "this extension has been corrupted". There is a repair button which brings it back, but even after that when I click to open it again, the same thing happens. I also tried completely removing it and reinstalling it. That made no difference.
