# Online API Clients

> An API client sends a request to a server and shows you what comes back, right in your browser — no account and nothing to install. Postman's clients cover REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, Socket.IO, MCP, and signed webhook delivery, so pick the protocol you're working with below.
