# Compose new Request

### 1. What's it?

Compose a new Request is a handy tool to help developers:

* Compose an HTTP/HTTPS Request and send it to your service. It's similar to Paw, Insomnia, and Postman.
* Quickly test your APIs without depending on your app client.
* Support Header, Query, URL, Form, JSON Body
* Support Raw Message
* Preset template: Empty Request, GET Request, Post Request with JSON or Form.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can reuse your request data for new requests. Please check out the [Edit & Repeat](/~/revisions/CTFzuwrlmsieJaiDVRDD/advanced-features/edit-and-repeat.md) page.
{% endhint %}
