Understanding the Dashboard
Navigate the interface efficiently and use powerful keyboard shortcuts
Dashboard Overview
The dashboard is your command center for managing all your mock API projects. It provides quick access to statistics, project management, and creation tools.
Quick Navigation
- Ctrl/Cmd + ASelect all projects
- DeleteDelete selected projects
- EscapeDeselect all
Statistics Cards
At the top of your dashboard, you'll find four key metrics that give you an instant overview of your account:
The total number of API projects you've created
Total API endpoints across all your projects
All API requests made to your endpoints (lifetime)
Projects that have received requests in the last 7 days
Search and Filter
Quickly find projects using the search bar. The search filters projects by:
- Project name - Find by the title of your project
- Description - Search in project descriptions
- Slug - Find by the URL-friendly identifier
Example: Type "users" to find all user-related APIs
View Modes
Choose between two display modes based on your preference:
Visual card-based layout perfect for browsing
- ✓ See project cards with icons
- ✓ Quick visual scanning
- ✓ Best for fewer projects
Compact table layout for efficiency
- ✓ See more projects at once
- ✓ Faster navigation
- ✓ Best for many projects
💡 Pro Tip: Your view preference is saved in your browser, so you don't need to switch it every time!
Bulk Operations
Efficiently manage multiple projects at once:
Select Multiple Projects
- Click the checkbox on each project card/row
- Or press Ctrl/Cmd + A to select all
- Selected count appears at the top
Bulk Delete
- Select one or more projects
- Click the Delete Selected button (or press Delete key)
- Confirm deletion in the dialog
- Projects are permanently removed
Warning: Bulk delete is permanent and cannot be undone. Make sure you've selected the correct projects before confirming.
Quick Actions
Access common actions directly from the dashboard:
Start a new API project from scratch or using templates
Import existing API specifications to create projects instantly
Access request logs to monitor API usage and debug issues

Best Practices
• Use clear, descriptive names (e.g., "User Management API" instead of "Project 1")
• Add descriptions to help team members understand the purpose
• Delete unused projects to keep your dashboard clean
• Check the "Active Projects" stat regularly
• Review request logs to understand usage patterns
• Archive or delete inactive projects after deployment
• Use templates for common API patterns
• Learn keyboard shortcuts to speed up navigation
• Switch to list view when managing many projects
