What is the API Response generator?

An API response image tool formats and highlights a JSON payload, then frames it with optional method and status badges. It is built for API documentation, changelogs and developer marketing, where a clear picture of a request or response communicates faster than a raw code block.

Codeshot is free and runs entirely in your browser — no account, no watermark, and nothing you paste is uploaded. Export a retina PNG or a scalable SVG, or copy the image straight to your clipboard.

When to use it

REST and GraphQL API docs
Changelogs and release notes
SDK and integration guides
