Build with the SynGen API.
RESTful endpoints. JSON responses. No SDK required — works with any language or tool that can make an HTTP request.
$ curl -X POST https://synthgenapp.dev/api/generate \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"rows": 5,
"format": "json",
"fields": [
{"name": "id", "type": "integer"},
{"name": "email", "type": "email"},
{"name": "name", "type": "name"}
]
}'
How the API works.
POST a schema, receive data. No auth for the public endpoints — just your field definitions.
RESTful endpoints
Simple HTTP POST with a JSON body. Response is your data, ready to use. No polling, no callbacks.
SSL and rate limiting
All requests are encrypted. Fair-use rate limits apply to keep the service available for everyone.
CSV, JSON, and SQL
Set format in your request body. SQL output includes the table_name param for INSERT statements.
Quick start
Up and running in under a minute.
Make your first request
curl -X POST https://synthgenapp.dev/api/generate \
