APIVerve for VS Code

Browse, test, and ship code against 360+ real-world APIs — weather, geocoding, finance, DNS, validation, text, and more — without leaving your editor. Find the API you need, try it with real data, and drop working code straight into your file.

Browse freely — no account needed

Open the APIVerve view in the Activity Bar and explore the entire catalog signed out: search, filter by category, read descriptions, view example responses, and copy code snippets. You only sign in when you want to make a live call.

Features

• Full catalog in the sidebar — search 360+ APIs, filter by category, each with its logo, description, and method.
• Try any API for real — fill in the parameters, hit Run, and see the actual JSON response, syntax-highlighted. Your remaining credits show in the header.
• Code in your language — a language picker gives you cURL, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, Go, or C#. Insert drops the snippet at your cursor; Copy puts it on the clipboard.
• See it before you call it — every API shows an example response and links to its docs.
• File uploads handled — image APIs get a file picker and proper multipart/form-data code, not a broken JSON body.
• Open in a tester tab — pop any API into a full-width editor tab for a roomier request/response workspace.
• Theme-native — the whole UI follows your VS Code theme, light or dark.
• Self-updating catalog — the API list refreshes from assets.apiverve.com; a bundled snapshot keeps it working offline.

Getting started

1. Click the APIVerve icon in the Activity Bar and start browsing — no sign-in required.
2. When you want to run a live call, Sign in with APIVerve (or paste an API key). Don't have one? Grab a free key from the sign-in screen.
3. Pick an API, fill in the parameters, and Run — or Insert the snippet into your open file.

New accounts include free credits, so you can start calling APIs right away. Your credential is stored in VS Code's encrypted secret storage — never in settings or files.

Commands

Settings

• apiverve.snippetLanguage — force a snippet language (curl, javascript, typescript, python, php, ruby, go, csharp), or auto to follow the active editor. The in-panel language picker overrides this per view.
