Mock response body

Mocking response body is made through adding a rule with a mock response body action. You can referer to modifying traffic with rules for more information about rules.

• Open rule management in one of the following ways:

  • Settings menu > manage rules
  • Status bar > active rule
  • Ctrl+T or Cmd+T to access the search everywhere tool, then type Manage rules

• Click on Add a new rule button

• Search for mock response and select it

• At this point you should have the following dialog box:

• Fill the form:
  • Status Code : The desired status code for the response (200 for this example)
  • Content type: Choose the content-type from the list (for this example, json). Leave it to unknown if you want Fluxzy to detect the content type from the provided body.
  • Body type: Choose how the request body will be retrieved (for this example, FromString)
    • FromString: The body will be taken from the provided string, for this sample will be {"message": "Hello world"}
    • FromImmediateArray: The body will be taken from the provided base64 string
    • FromFile: The body will be taken from the provided file name
  • Add additional response header you want to send to the client
• Choose a filter. The specified action will only be applied to requests that match the filter. For this example, we will choose Select filter and Full url filter and fill with https://test-mock.com.

Save everything, now the rule should appear on rule management dialog

Now, any request to https://test-mock.com will have a response with status code 200 and a body containing {"message": "Hello world"}.
