DevProxy (formerly known as Microsoft 365 Developer Proxy) helps developers to add resilience to their API-related code by simulating a vast number of API and network behaviours. By default, the tool acts as a proxy that fails half the time. It can also simulate throttling, rate-limiting or slow API responses. It can be used to mock responses to specific APIs. Combined with dev tunnels CLI, a ngrok-like tool, it can also inspect cloud services communication to understand what messages are being passed in cloud calls.
The new improvements are mostly centered on the OpenAPI generator. DevProxy can generate an OpenAPI specification from the intercepted requests and responses.
