In this example, we would like to test a sample List API we created in the default Expenses Claims App.

First, click on the desired API to test. This will expand the configurations available for the API.

In this case, we are testing an API method that lists all or partial records of the "Expense All" datalist.

In the "Parameters" section, we can observe all the available parameters of this API, along with its data type, parameter type, and a short description about its function/purpose.

In the "Responses" section, here shows all the possible responses that this API may return. In the 'Example Value' field, we can expect the JSON value that this API will return, depending on a successful or unsuccessful/misconfigured request.

Now let's try out this API method! Click on "Try it out" button located on the right side of the "ParameterParameters" section header.

In this case, the List API by default will return all records found in a datalist, if none of the parameters contain a value.

Now let's try clearing the auto-filled sample formatting in the "filters" parameter, and click on "Execute" to call this API method with this configuration.

We have successfully called this API method and received a successful response!

In the test response section, we can observe the sample cURL, request URL, and server response of this API call.

Here in the server response - response body, APIs will return the response value in JSON format. You can inspect the value here and determine how your external application can consume this API.
