What makes this quicker than testing the endpoint myself?
This is the smallest useful health check — no install, no workspace, no account. Postman sends a GET from a server and shows what came back: the real status code, response time and size, without the cross-origin limits a browser fetch runs into.
Why can I not see the response body?
The request runs on a Postman server, so the real status and body are available. This compact check surfaces the status, response time and size; the full response body is shown in the Postman HTTP client.
Which HTTP methods can it send?
This compact check sends a GET. For other methods and a request body, use the full Postman HTTP client
Can I set custom headers or authentication?
Not in this tool — it takes a URL and sends a GET. Requests that need other methods, custom headers or auth belong in the full Postman client
Does this run the request from a Postman server?
Yes. The URL is sent to Postman and the request is made from a Postman server, so the tool can read the real response without a browser's cross-origin restrictions. The URL is not stored.
