Mockoon FAQs

• What is an "API mock" in Mockoon?

  An API mock is a collection of endpoints created in the desktop application to simulate a real API. Each mock can include an unlimited number of endpoints, rules, stateful routes, and more.
• Which features are supported in Mockoon Cloud deployments?

  Nearly all features available in the desktop application are supported in cloud deployments. Some features may be unavailable due to technical limitations or security reasons. Please refer to the cloud documentation for specific details.
• What is the difference between "Email support" and "Enterprise support"?

  Email support is standard for all paid customers, offering help without a guaranteed response time (usually within one business day). Enterprise support is a premium service for Enterprise plan users, providing guaranteed response times and negotiable SLAs.
• How does per-seat billing work for Team and Enterprise plans?

  For Team and Enterprise plans, you select the required number of seats, and each seat is billed monthly. You can contact Mockoon support to add or remove seats at any time.
• What payment methods does Mockoon accept?

  Mockoon accepts credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, etc.) through Paddle. Bank transfers are also available as an option for the Enterprise plan upon contacting them.

SmartMock.io FAQs

• Does SmartMock.io offer a free plan?

  Yes, SmartMock.io provides a free plan that allows users to test key features with limited request and workspace quotas.
• How is usage measured on SmartMock.io?

  Usage is tracked in terms of requests to mocks, workspaces, mocks, teams, and team members, with clear quotas depending on the selected plan.
• Can SmartMock.io simulate error and timeout scenarios?

  Yes, the platform supports fault and delay simulations to test how your application reacts to errors or slow responses from APIs.
• How can I organize different mocks and environments?

  Mocks are organized into workspaces, each with a unique URL, allowing you to separate different APIs and environments effectively.
• Is it possible to collaborate with team members?

  SmartMock.io supports team collaboration, enabling you to manage and share API mocks with multiple users based on your subscription.
