Best Practices for Designing Mock API Responses

A good mock API setup mirrors real-world data as closely as possible. With RealTable, define schemas that reflect production models—including field types, optional fields, and complex relations. Use realistic datasets generated from sample values, tune response codes, and even set up randomization for user flows.

Group endpoints to match your application modules, follow consistent naming, and document each mock endpoint. RealTable's documentation tools and auto-generated OpenAPI specs underpin scalable projects.
