Mocking a tool

Add a Mock API tool to test an agent before your real backend exists. It’s a separate tool from the API tool and uses Postman Echo (postman-echo.com) as its endpoint - whatever payload the agent sends, it gets back unchanged, so you can wire up and test tool calls end to end without a real backend.

You can also just ask Genie to set up the Mock API tool for you.

Use it to rehearse a tool in test agent before pointing it at your production API. Once you’re happy with the agent, remove the Mock API tool and connect your real endpoint using the API tool.
