Quick announcement 🚀

NativeRest is a 100% native desktop application for testing your API that does not use Electron. NativeRest starts fast, uses less memory and CPU.NativeRest, unlike other popular tools, can be used without an account and internet connection. You decide to use only local workspaces or additionally create cloud workspaces.When using local workspaces, all your collections, environments, requests will be stored only on your computer. When working as a team, you can create personal cloud and team cloud workspaces.NativeRest also supports grouping requests into folders. Folders allow you to organize requests by categories or API sections; requests sorting is also supported.Just Released: Version 3.3.0 Major Update (March 2026)&nbsp;We are constantly improving! The latest v3.3.0 brings powerful enterprise-grade features:<ul style="padding: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: auto; height: initial; width: initial; line-height: initial; border: 0px; --listStyleLevel1: disc; --listStyleLevel2: circle; --listStyleLevel3: square; color: rgb(49, 67, 81); font-family: &quot;Aktiv Grotesk&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><li style="line-height: 22px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding-top: initial; padding-right: initial; padding-bottom: initial; padding-left: 2px; height: initial; width: initial; border: 0px; background-color: initial;">Seamless Postman Migration: Export and import collections in Postman format while fully preserving your nested folder structures and folder colors.</li><li style="line-height: 22px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding-top: initial; padding-right: initial; padding-bottom: initial; padding-left: 2px; height: initial; width: initial; border: 0px; background-color: initial;">Conditional Scripting: Automate your API workflows with the new if function and advanced comparison operators.</li><li style="line-height: 22px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding-top: initial; padding-right: initial; padding-bottom: initial; padding-left: 2px; height: initial; width: initial; border: 0px; background-color: initial;">Unmatched Performance: Zero UI freezes when rendering, expanding, or searching through massive XML and JSON responses.</li><li style="line-height: 22px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding-top: initial; padding-right: initial; padding-bottom: initial; padding-left: 2px; height: initial; width: initial; border: 0px; background-color: initial;">Enhanced Developer Tools: Added XML syntax highlighting, new built-in functions for binary data (hex.encode/decode), and unique identifiers (random.ulid).</li></ul><p style="line-height: 22px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding-top: initial; padding-right: initial; padding-bottom: initial; padding-left: 2px; height: initial; width: initial; border: 0px; background-color: initial;"> To send a request to AI models, you don't need to construct a JSON request body, just specify your prompt and parameters, NativeRest will do the rest for you.

NativeRest is a cross-platform desktop application that supports sending REST API requests.

NativeRest provides a way to easily test your API. Use single line tests to check status, time, body, headers, cookies of response. You can use a list of commonly-used test code snippets to write your tests. Snippets are available in Test Examples window.Allowed relational operators: ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=, %%, =%, %=<ul><li>response.size >= 1000</li><li>response.body.user.firstName == "Antonio"</li><li>response.body.user.email %= "@gmail.com"</li><li>response.body.user.age >= 18</li><li>response.contentLength >= 512</li></ul> Also allowed to set a variable value from the response body, headers and cookies.{{myUsername}} = response.body.users[1].usernameYou can generate code snippets in various languages and frameworks within NativeRest. Over fifteen different languages: C, C#, cURL, Delphi, Go, HTTP, Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, Node.js, PHP, PowerShell, Python, Ruby, Shell, Swift, and more.

The "Tests" tab allows you to create concise one-line tests for each request.

NativeRest has powerful capabilities for layering your variables. You can use system, global, workspace and environment variables. NativeRest uses built-in library to generate sample data, including random names, addresses, email addresses, and much more. You can use these pre-defined variables multiple times to return different values per request.An environment is a set of variables you can use in your NativeRest requests. You can use environments to group related sets of values together and manage access to shared NativeRest data if you are working as part of a team.NativeRest also supports commonly used functions:<ul><li>Hash functions: md5, sha1, sha256, sha512</li><li>HMAC hash functions: sha256, sha512</li><li>Base64 encode and decode functions</li><li>DateTime functions</li><li>Random functions</li><li>Math functions</li><li>String functions</li><li>Sequence functions</li></ul> This way you can use functions in one line using curly braces symbols {{md5(your_text)}}.

In the Variables panel you can set variables for different scopes. Nested variables and functions are also supported.

You can import data from other REST clients such as Postman, Insomnia and OpenAPI specification. You can migrate without loss earlier created collections, environments and variables. It also supports data export. NativeRest export file format is fully compatible with the most popular REST API clients. Also, you can paste copied cURL command straight to URL bar.Folders for grouping requestsNativeRest allows you to use folders to group and organize requests. You can use an unlimited number of folders and up to 8 levels of nesting. NativeRest also allows you to import requests from Postman JSON files that support hierarchical structure. Move folders and requests within the workspace using Drag-and-Drop.

In the "Import Data" window, you can import collections and requests from other REST clients.

Use high-performance preconfigured proxy server from NativeRest. A proxy server acts as an intermediary between the user and the web server. Proxy servers use a different IP address on behalf of the user, concealing the user's real address from web servers. You can also configure NativeRest to use a custom proxy configuration when sending requests.NativeRest supports two-factor authentication 2FA.NativeRest is available in a portable version as well. The portable version is distributed as a single executable file and does not require administrator privileges. All features are available in the portable version.NativeRest is a multilingual HTTP client that supports multiple languages. It supports 10 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Bulgarian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese.NativeRest supports Light and Dark themes for all components and windows. NativeRest uses system theme by default, but you can manually choose a Light or Dark theme in the Settings window.Try the fast native REST API client for creating and testing your application API.Get access today!

In the "Proxy Settings" window, configure proxy options as needed.
