Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a Postman alternative?
Yes! ByteKit HTTP Request Builder lets you send API requests directly from your browser without installing any software. It supports all HTTP methods, custom headers, JSON bodies, and now cURL import.
How does cURL Import work?
Paste any cURL command into the "Import cURL" tab. ByteKit automatically parses the HTTP method, URL, all headers (-H flags), request body (-d flag), Basic Auth (-u flag) and query params, then loads them into the builder. Click ▶ Send to execute it.
Which cURL flags are supported?
ByteKit supports -X (method), -H/--header (headers), -d/--data/--data-raw/--data-binary (body), -F/--form (form data), -u/--user (basic auth), --url (URL), --compressed (adds Accept-Encoding), and bare URLs. Line continuations (\) are handled automatically.
Why might some requests fail?
Requests to APIs that don't allow cross-origin requests (CORS) will fail in the browser. This is a browser security restriction — use a CORS proxy or test from your terminal using the generated cURL command.
Are my requests logged?
No — your requests go directly from your browser to the API. ByteKit never sees your request data, headers, API keys or cURL commands.
