Default Response

The Mockgee default response feature allows developers to define a default response for a Mock API endpoint in cases where the incoming request does not match any configured request matcher.

Steps to configure it

To set a default mock response for an endpoint in Mockgee when the request matcher doesn't match files, follow these steps from the Mockgee UI page:

  1. Navigate to the Mock folder:
    • From the Mockgee UI page, locate and click on the "Mock" folder in the navigation.
  2. Access API | Services:
    • Within the Mock folder, find and click on "API | Services."
  3. Select the project:
    • In the API | Services page, click on the specific project that contains the endpoint for which you want to set a default response.
  4. Access endpoint options:
    • Inside the mock project, locate the endpoint for which you want to set the default response. Click on the three-dotted options on the right-hand side.
  5. Choose Proxy/Default response:
    • From the options menu, click on "Proxy/Default response."
  6. Configure the default response:
    • On the Mock Config page, select the default response option from the dropdown menu.
    • Configure the default response settings as needed.
  7. Save the configuration:
    • After configuring the default response, click on the "Save" button to save the changes.

By following these steps, you can set a default mock response for a specific endpoint in Mockgee, ensuring that a predefined response is provided when the request matcher doesn't match any files.
