What HTTP methods does the cURL builder support?

The builder supports GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, and OPTIONS — all the standard HTTP methods you need for REST API testing.

How do I add a JSON body to a POST request?

Select POST, choose "JSON" as the body type, paste your JSON, and the builder will add the correct Content-Type header and format the --data flag automatically.

Can I add Bearer token authentication?

Yes. Enter your token in the authentication section and the builder generates the correct -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" flag.

Does the generated cURL work on Windows?

The cURL command uses standard syntax that works on macOS, Linux, and Windows (via Windows Subsystem for Linux or Git Bash). Windows Command Prompt requires backslash line continuation.
