how to automatically map api endpoints on a domain without manual guessing

the problem

when working with unfamiliar APIs, discovering all available endpoints can be tedious and error-prone. manually crawling or guessing paths wastes time and risks missing important parts of the api.

the solution

our api-endpoint-discovery simplifies this. it scans common api paths and analyzes responses to automatically discover and map all available endpoints on a domain.

to try it, send a request:



curl https://api-endpoint-discovery.apimesh.xyz/check?domain=example.com

and you'll get a response like:


{
  "endpoints": [
    "/api/users",
    "/api/orders",
    "/api/products"
  ],
  "domain": "example.com"
}


## how it works
our service crawls common api paths (like /api/, /v1/, /data/) and analyzes HTTP responses for clues about available endpoints. it builds a map based on predictable response patterns and headers.

## try it out
