Features & Capabilities

RESTClient is a Firefox add-on that functions as a debugger for RESTful web services. It's tailored for all HTTP methods as outlined in RFC2616 (HTTP/1.1) and RFC2518 (WebDAV). The redesigned version is compatible with Firefox 57, although it currently lacks OAuth & OAuth 2.0 authentication support. It allows for the construction of custom HTTP requests to directly test against a server.
