Backend not ready? Still waiting for database access? Generate a custom dataset that you can read and write to via a REST API.
Introduction
Hello, everybody.
If you are a developer, you should be aware of this. You require an API while working on the client side. However, getting the APIs is not that simple; the backend team must finish their work and generate the API. But you're not sure when the API was sent. You can't wait that long, and finishing the assignment in that amount of time is not time-efficient. As a result, you require the dummy data-filled rest api that you may build with custom fields in a matter of minutes.
Retool API Generator

Developers that are waiting for APIs will find Retool's API generator to be quite helpful. Create a custom dataset that a REST API may read from and write to.
API persists data
Your API has GET, PUT, POST, PATCH, and DELETE endpoints for reading + writing to your dataset. Writes are persisted.
API be available for?
Your sample API will be available as long as you continue using it. We may delete it if it hasn’t been used in the last 30 days -you contact them if you had any issue.
API outside Retool?
you can call this API from wherever you need it (a mobile app, using cURL, Postman, etc.)
How much data can I store?
Your dataset can have at most 150 rows. Contact us if you need a sample API with more data.
Does this cost anything?
Nope! Its free of cost.
How to built it?
Now you can the api's...
Thank you.
