FakeJSON — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is FakeJSON free to use?

FakeJSON is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires an API key, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.

Does FakeJSON need an API key?

Yes. FakeJSON authenticates with an API key. Keep it server-side rather than in browser code, because anything in your frontend bundle is readable by anyone who opens developer tools.

Can I call FakeJSON from browser JavaScript?

Yes. FakeJSON returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.

Is FakeJSON still working?

Not at our last check on 2026-09-18. FakeJSON did not respond successfully, which is why it is marked as down here. This may be temporary; we re-check on a schedule and the badge above reflects the most recent run.

Is FakeJSON available over HTTPS?

Yes. FakeJSON serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
