API Tester - Test Any API Endpoint

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run:

npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth:

-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Test API endpoints, validate responses, and generate documentation examples.

Workflow

Step 1: Test GET Endpoints

Make GET requests to test endpoints:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"linkup","path":"/fetch","body":{"url":"https://api.example.com/health"}}'

Step 2: Test POST Endpoints

Test POST requests by fetching API docs:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"scrapegraph","path":"/v1/smartscraper"}'
  "website_url": "https://api.example.com/docs",
  "user_prompt": "Extract all API endpoints, methods, parameters, and example responses"
}'

Step 3: Get API Documentation

Fetch and parse API docs:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"scrapegraph","path":"/v1/markdownify","body":{"website_url":"https://api.example.com/docs"}}'

Step 4: Validate Response Schema

Check response structure:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"riveter","path":"/v1/run"}'
  "url": "https://api.example.com/endpoint",
  "schema": {
    "id": "string",
    "name": "string",
    "created_at": "string"
  }
}'

Example Usage

# Extract API spec from docs
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"scrapegraph","path":"/v1/smartscraper"}'
  "website_url": "https://stripe.com/docs/api",
  "user_prompt": "Extract API authentication methods and example curl commands"
}'

# Fetch API page
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"linkup","path":"/fetch","body":{"url":"https://api.openai.com/v1/models"}}'

Tips

  • Test both happy paths and error cases
  • Verify response schemas match documentation
  • Check rate limits and authentication
  • Document any discrepancies found

Discover More

List all endpoints, or add a path for parameter details:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt":"linkup API endpoints"}' api show riveter
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt":"scrapegraph API endpoints"}'

Example: `curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/details \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"olostep","path":"/v1/scrapes`"}' for endpoint parameters.
