Test a Service version

To test a Service version, change the status to Testing.

Tip: Apply a Policy to the Service for comprehensive testing.
  • A valid Service with:
    • A Snaplex selected at the Service or overridden at the endpoint level.
    • At least one endpoint with at least one HTTP method.
  1. Open the Service version to test.
  2. Click on the Service status pill on the top right.
  3. From the dropdown, select Testing and click Confirm.
  4. Scroll to the endpoint paths.
    You can test an endpoint with a command line tool like cURL or an app like Postman. Copy the URL from the clipboard in the path row:

    When published, you can also test a Service version with the Try it out feature.

If you encounter issues testing or publishing, check the following:

  • Make sure there are no errors reported in the Service.
  • Make sure the Service status is correct:
    • To test, the Service status must be Testing.
    • To publish, the Service status must be one of Private, Restricted, or Public.
  • Check the Snaplex selected in the Service to make sure it's running.
