Apidog Update: New Feature Highlights

In December, Apidog brought you more surprises. From the perspective of enhancing product experience and API collaboration efficiency, we have launched a large number of new features and capabilities in the past month.

This product update focuses on:

Default Mock Sets Response Example as Priority

Apidog's initial default Mock method is intelligent Mock, and the data generated each time is random. However, if you need the data returned each time to be a fixed value, you can choose to set the response example as the default Mock method. You can select "Response Example First" in the project's feature settings, and after setting it, it will be displayed according to the set response example priority.

Of course, if advanced Mock expectations are set, the priority is always highest for advanced Mock expectations.

Response Example First

When multiple response examples need to be set, you can directly add the interface document's response example as an expectation for advanced Mock, without manually filling in, helping you save more time and energy to do more important things.

You can click the M button on the right side of "Response Example" to add it directly:

Response Example

You can also choose to use the example value in "Auto Generate" when creating an expectation:

Debugging Supported in Test Report Steps

After the completion of automated testing steps, it is common to encounter an error in a certain step, requiring a quick identification of the specific error.

We have added a debug button on the interface running result page, which supports fast debugging of that step and retains the response returned at the time of the interface error, saving copying time and improving testing efficiency.

After debugging is completed, clicking "save" can immediately modify the step content.

New Functionality to Identify APIs

We have improved the rules for identifying APIs based on the OpenAPI specification to accommodate scenarios where the target service for e-commerce or payment businesses points to multiple methods through the same URL address.

To make it more convenient for users in this scenario to manage APIs, we have added a unique identifier for APIs. In addition to Method & Path, APIs can now be differentiated using operationId, Query parameters, Body parameters, and Header parameters, ensuring that teams using APIs with the same URL can use Apidog more smoothly for collaboration and management, and avoid situations such as API coverage when importing and exporting API data.

For example, suppose we have an e-commerce website with an API used for ERP order information synchronization. To better call and manage this API, we can set Query parameters as the unique identifier, set the parameter name as "action," and set the parameter value to ".erp.order.sync." This way, we can differentiate the API using this unique identifier.

Quickly Invite Team Member Join the Project

Users can directly select members who are already in the team from the list to join the project and synchronize their member permissions, increasing team collaboration efficiency.

New Database Types Supported for Database Operations

Database operations now support ClickHouse and DM databases for reading and writing, and query results can be used in API request parameters, assertions, and custom scripts.

Currently, Apidog's database operations support MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, and DM databases.

Improved Experience in Selecting Referenced Models

When referencing data models, the pop-up window now supports a search function, making it easier for users to quickly find what they're looking for.
